SUMMARY:UNTITLED ASSEMBLY: An open\, collective occupation of the ANNEX 
LOCATION:ANNEX By The Koppel Project\, 1 Tiverton Street\, SE1 6NT
DESCRIPTION:During this project\, The Koppel Project's ANNEX gallery in Ele
 phant & Castle will be made available to the resident artists working with
 in their studios for Untitled Assembly\, a temporary\, collectively occupi
 ed exhibition.\n\nWith hundreds of artists working across a wide range of 
 disciplines\, the studios provides the context for an experiment in exhibi
 tion-making that begins with a simple proposition: what happens when artis
 ts are given access to a gallery without a prescribed theme\, a selection 
 process or a curatorial framework?\n\nFor four days\, the ANNEX will funct
 ion as an open space in which artists can install\, alter\, accumulate\, r
 emove and respond to work. Painting\, sculpture\, photography\, moving ima
 ge\, sound\, text\, performance and other forms of practice may coexist wi
 thin the gallery. Contributions can be temporary or remain throughout the 
 project\; artists may work independently or in response to one another. Th
 e exhibition will develop over time\, with no fixed arrangement or predete
 rmined outcome.\n\nUntitled Assembly considers the conditions through whic
 h artistic work is exhibited\, circulated and made visible. Within a secto
 r in which access to space\, resources and professional networks can shape
  an artist’s opportunities\, the project temporarily suspends the conven
 tional distinction between those selected to exhibit and those who are not
 .\n\nRather than presenting a curated representation of the building’s a
 rtistic community\, this initiative makes the exhibition space itself avai
 lable as a shared resource.\n\nThere will be no opening reception or priva
 te view. The public is invited to visit and encounter the gallery in whate
 ver state it occupies. Works may appear\, disappear\, overlap or be replac
 ed\; documentation will record moments in the exhibition’s development w
 ithout attempting to establish a definitive version.\n\nThe gallery may al
 so be entirely empty. There is no guarantee of a particular number of part
 icipants\, a minimum amount of work\, or a continuous exhibition in the co
 nventional sense. Its presence\, density and activity will depend entirely
  on the artists who choose to take part and the decisions they make throug
 hout the week.\n\nUntitled Assembly resists defining in advance what the e
 xhibition should become. An assembly may be a gathering\, an arrangement o
 f separate parts or a collective act. Here\, it describes a space whose fo
 rm and meaning will be determined by the artists who occupy it.\n\nThe res
 ult may be an exhibition\, a conversation\, an accumulation of unrelated g
 estures or a temporary disruption of the gallery’s usual function. Its d
 irection remains open.\n\nhttps://artweekguide.com/events/untitled-assembl
