MyPeople Project networks artists London | Amsterdam | Shanghai

MyPeople is an artist-led initiative that suggests a new approach to develop a network between artists from Europe and Asia, allowing an intercultural dialogue. The MyPeople Project features four artists each from Shanghai, London and Amsterdam, working in collaboration.

The process will result in exhibitions taking place in London, Amsterdam and Shanghai. The project intends to create a more organic discussion and an opportunity for the exchange of views and perceptions between artists, as well as an online and offline artist/audience dialogue.

What are the social and collective conditions of the artistic practice? Is an artwork the result of a singular encounter between the author and the medium, or is it rather the unfolding of a complex network of social encounters and interactions?

MyPeople aims to embrace this new sensibility: the tendency toward collaboration, collectivity and reinvented social space. It does not strive merely to establish a group of creative individuals exhibiting alongside each other. The project is meant to unleash the network, to free its inner generative forces, to let it unfold from within.
