temporarycontemporary, London
Located
in a 4000 sq ft warehouse in South East London, temporarycontemporary
is an independent art space founded in Feb 2004 by artists and Goldsmiths
graduates Anthony Gross and Jen Wu.
They have
fast developed an international reputation for producing innovative
exhibitions working with the newest generation of forward-thinking artists
and curators. In its two-year history, temporarycontemporary has produced
over 20 exhibitions in the UK, Europe and China, received support from
Arts Council England and local government bodies as well as coverage
in the Guardian and Evening Standard and local culture guides such as
TimeOut and kultureflash.
Currently
pioneering new collaborations with art spaces in China, Anthony and
Jen were awarded a prestigious British Council residency in 2005 to
do artistic and curatorial research in China through the Artist
Links program, supported by the British Council and Arts Council
England.

Working
with cutting-edge Chinese artists and art organisations temporarycontemporary
organised an extensive China tour of the international video exhibition
Biennale! Artist Film & Video - originally curated and
shown in London. This tour included the production of a dual language
catalogue and built relationships with support agencies and production
companies across China. Metropolis Rise:
New Art from London has been made possible through
continued collaborations.
Both
Anthony and Jen are exhibiting professionally with recent exhibitions
including a public commission for the London underground (Anthony
Gross Digital Forest - Platform for Art, Piccadilly Circus);
a collaboration with Chinese art collective Redskyart for the 2nd
Guangzhou Triennale; and The Chinese Arts Centre, Manchester (Jen
