Now That’s What I Call Art 2 is the second collaboration with System Gallery and Spaghetti Factory, two North East artist-run projects, at Newcastle Contemporary Art (NCA) in April 2023.
This is a group exhibition, featuring 74 artists at all stages who were invited to display one artwork or set of artworks. This is not an open call, it’s an ‘open invitation'. There has been no selection process, instead artists were welcomed on a first-come first-serve basis.
The exhibition has transformed the gallery from an empty white box to a shifting gathering of artworks, ideas and processes. Now That’s What I Call Art 2 aims to foster collaboration between artists. This is in the understanding that collaboration makes everybody a novice as it requires working within each other’s discipline / practice. As such, collaboration enables us to act with resourcefulness and generosity.
