The Penis Show

All is not lost
A group exhibition curated by Emily Druiff

21 September-23 October 2011

CGP London // Gallery by the Pool, 1 Park Approach, Southwark Park, London SE16 2UA

An exhibition of artworks by emerging and established female artists presenting a philosophy of optimism and resilience.

Leaning towards an anarchic aesthetic of protest and DIY culture, all is not lost represents the potential of art to inspire change, with each artist revealing an individual approach to this in the form of confrontation or observation.

The penis show curated by Rosalie Schweiker, is an exhibition within the exhibition. It includes work by Joanna Waterhouse, Matthew Sleeth, Colourful Colophone, Gillian Wylde, Hannah Clayden, Arthur Hazlewood and other good artists.

For this exhibition I wrote a text work "I love her dick', in which the audience could telephone me and I would read the text over the phone to them.
The work continued to explore questions of immediacy and ‘liveness’, events or conditions that could not be predetermined that favour an ‘in the moment’ approach together with inclinations, hunches, accidents and mistakes.
