Art / not art Art / not art

... was conceived and set up in 1999 by David (Dobz) O Brien (artist) and Fergal Gaynor (writer/scholar). It sees itself as an educational, productive and discursive unit committed to the organisation of art projects that investigate the working (or not working) of art (or not art) in society (or the non-society). To date Art / not art projects have taken many shapes (sculpture, photography, performance, books, multiples, music, poetry, lectures, exhibitions and discussion groups), have involved collaboration with individuals from a variety of disciplines, and have been sited in Ireland, Scotland, Germany and Italy.
