The Boon Tea Room @ THE SPACE 7 South Mall

2010-01-11T04:38:00.001-08:00

Having finally recovered from the flash floods and icy weather now synonomous with a Cork Christmas & New Years, The Space has once again opened it's doors on the top floor of 7 South Mall with a new exhibition and would like to begin by extending an open invitation to the public and a huge thank you to everyone who attended the launch party for this month's Space project: The Boon Tea Room.

We received an overwhelming response to this January's open call and would like to thank all applicants for their interest and support in the show.

The concept for the Boon is to transform The Space into an informal art cafe / art shop which operates mainly as a meeting point, performance space and forum for creative discussion and collaboration. The featured artists, collectives, poets and projects programmed for the month will act as a catalyst for this environment.

The Launch night featured battery operated trad experiment The Shmell, Corks finest guerrilla open mic regulars and a live acoustic set by Seamus O' Connor against a backdrop of snugs, chats and tea.

The show will be open to the public from Tuesday to Saturday between 11.30am and 5.30pm until the 30th of January and will host a series of events including, film screenings, artists talks, workshops, performances, poetry and much more. Details will be announced soon but join the mailing list above and check the blog regularly for details and updates on month's line-up.

The Space would also like to extend its open submissions for the month to all artists, poets, writers or creative practioners who would like to become involved with the experience. Please forward proposals to corkcontemporaryprojects@gmail.com

Once again a happy new year to all and hope to see you at The Boon Tea Room!

Teas, coffees, hot chocolates and cakes are available throughout and all donations are greatly appreciated in support of the gallery programme.

This month Moniker is a straight up electro affair with DJs SLEV DJ'ENERATE LAWN CHAIR MAFIA Featured artists include installations by Eveleen Murphy and videoworks by Maire O Mahony which will preview at the start of the night so come early to catch the show.

So there it is: installations, videoworks, visuals, a birthday, a fare well and good dose of electro- and all at the reduced price of €5! Thanks once more to everyone whos been supporting Moniker throughout the year, your keeping Moniker and the gallery alive! And to all with good intentions who still haven't been .........

FEATURING WORK BY: EDEL O REILLY. DIANE HARRINGTON.

LIAM SLEVIN.PAUL HARRINGTON. TADGH SLEVIN

Cork Contemporary Projects (CCP) are a new arts collective based in Cork city with a strong focus on collaboration between the disciplines of art, architecture and design.

As the title suggests, the venue is currently home to two members of CCP and is intended to be
renovated and leased out to new tenants. The decision to seize this transition period as an
opportunity to exhibit has been quite recent and so CCP intend for the show to be the result of an open studio, highlighting the fact that there are always opportunities to make and show work, even when you’re being evicted.

We hope you enjoy the show and thank you for your support.
