Boyd Webb (Comma24) - Suchan Kinoshita (Comma25)Photography/Installation collaborationUntil - 14 AugustBloomberg SPACE, 50 Finsbury Square, London EC2A 1HD
COMMACOMMA is a dynamic new series of commissions enabling artists to experiment and expand their practice in relation to Bloomberg SPACE and its communities. Over thirty of today's most outstanding emerging and established international artists will be invited to create new work, installations and architectural interventions. Boyd Webb (Comma24)Widely considered as a pioneer of the constructed photographic image, Boyd Webb has been commissioned to create a pair of large-scale images in response to the voluminous front gallery. Easily viewed from the street the two new huge photographic works pasted flat against the gallery walls create a connection linking the interior of the gallery to the public square beyond. For COMMA, Webb has chosen not to create fantastical tableaux, but rather to focus his lens on two separate bizarre yet mesmerizing images. Suchan Kinoshita (Comma25)Kinoshita's work engages visitors with objects and architecture, subtly directing their movements through space and involving them physically and emotionally in her all-encompassing staged environments. For COMMA, Kinoshita will transform the rear gallery into one of her theatrical sets. The usual surface of the gallery will disappear under a new covering of yellow peg board, whilst the balcony will be draped with a series of floating projection screens for her short videos documenting a number of performances realised in the offices of Bloomberg LP.

As in music, the art of postproduction breaks with traditions of referencing and citation, moving instead towards a culture of ‘shareware’ in which forms, already within the circulation of the cultural market are re-imagined and re-contextualised by artists.
