OPT Working Title

The freedoms necessary for creative pursuits are not easily evoked when they are confronted with official institutions exterior to world of art. Bureaucracy, careerism and superficiality become intimate when cultural praxis becomes not only a spiritual, or psychological drive assumed within artistic subjectivity but instead enters it as a concrete variable, irregardless of the artist's motive. The works exhibited will radiate this dilemma not simply within the poetics of their appearance, but as anxieties that perforate the daily life of their authors.

The first curation work of AGWF, placed at the first AGWF gallery space, the White Flag.
