About the event
Coventry Artspace are delighted to launch #ArtspaceWindows as part of the The Make it West Midlands Midsummer Festival https://www.makeitwm.com/at-home-in-the-west-midlands/midsummer-festival/midsummer-festival-schedule. While Artspace are unable to open their exhibition spaces, they are inviting their Artist Listings https://coventry-artspace.co.uk/listings/ artists to use the windows at their city centre spaces The Row and Arcadia to show their work and bring some creativity to Coventry's neglected streets.
The first exhibition in the #ArtspaceWindows is I Release My Colours by Ije. This exhibition gives a flavour of Ije’s lastest mixed media artwork, I Release My Colours 2: Survivor + two poems: A Life of Colour can be found in a window at The Row, and I Release My Colours at Arcadia. You can also enjoy a trip to Ije’s garden and studio in a short video and hear her perform her poems. Alongside the exhibition there is a fascinating blog from Ije considering her response to the ideas of German philosopher Theodor Adorno.
Ije is also taking part in the #ArtistSupportPledge http://matthewburrows.org/artist-support-pledge
