Now’s The Time is a multi-site project – a series of community events and artists’ installations – located in art venues, empty shop spaces and public contexts around Exeter city centre.
The project opens with a Private View on Thursday 9 June, 5-7pm for Art Week Exeter. Host venues include Maketank and Positive Light Projects. One of the student's projects is also presented on daata.art as an online gallery playlist.
Initiated by students on the MA Curation course at University of Exeter, and starting from ‘Art Year Zero’, each of the seven curatorial projects in Now’s The Time engages with a different aspect of this contemporary moment, in the wake of Covid-19, and how our social assumptions about the way we live, and our hopes for the future, have changed.
The aim of Now’s The Time is to be a positive and mutually supportive platform, working in participation with artists, specific communities and young people to envisage a different future, beyond the ‘new normal’.
