Latest online readings ?
We commission, develop, and display texts on our website in a parallel programme to our exhibition and cinema schedule. At times, these texts address contexts and circumstances in the expanded field around our programme. At other times they represent independent research interests, framing the political realities of our environment through creative cultural analysis.
New Books at the Reading Room ?
The Artspace Reading Room is a free space accessible during the gallery’s open hours. A large selection of international and local art publications are available for study or recreational reading.
