GLASMO was initiated in Glasgow in 2013 by the singaporian artist Chun Kai Qun. GLASMO is a collaborative art project by recently graduated artists from Malmö Art Academy and Glasgow School of Art. The first part took place in Glasgow, in autumn 2013. The second takes place in Malmö this year. Next to workshops and talks, two large scale exhibitions with all participating artists open at Skånes Konstförening and KHM gallery next Friday, August 29th.
GLASMO 2014 invited the Berlin based art historian Nico Anklam to curate this years’ exhibition.
Under the title Double You the two sites serve as a starting point to present all 13 artists not once but twice in two parallel group exhibitions. As such, Double You offers two distinct views on how the same group of artists can be presented, and what different interplay or synergies their works might entail. Situated on the same block Double You aims to reveal and carve out particularities that become visible through a two site exhibition experience.
