In recent years Project Spaces have become part of the established art system and have been incorporated into large-scale exhibitions and biennials.\u201d \u2014 <\/em>Michael Birchall\/Nkule Mabaso, <strong>ON<\/strong>CURATING Issue&nbsp;19<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;Artists choose art in a&nbsp;particular way, arguably their choices and interests are motivated or coloured by concerns within their own practice. Conversely, when curators or writers are practising and exhibiting artists in their own right, there is a&nbsp;potential opportunity to discover \u2014 through the medium of their art \u2014 curatorial and critical motives which are either consciously or subconsciously unavailable in an exhibition itself, nor in its supporting materials, such as press releases and articles. The Opinion Makers series of exhibitions is conceived as paired juxtapositions; each pair comprising one work by an artist who curates or writes, together with one work by an artist of their choice. It is a&nbsp;pragmatic attempt to use artists as curators as an explicit tool for understanding curation. It is also a&nbsp;statement about the significantly expanded presence of the artist-led approach in the contemporary art landscape. The Opinion Makers is organised by Iavor Lubomirov and Bella Easton \u2013 artists, curators and directors of the ALISN network and the LUBOMIROV-EASTON Project Space. The first Opinion Makers exhibition took place at Enclave Gallery in 2013. The second in this evolving series, presents at Londonewcastle Project Space the work of international, as well as UK artists, curators and critics, to give a&nbsp;glimpse of a&nbsp;rising global trend of artists devolving new organisational, curatorial and critical roles upon themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Opinion Makers 2&nbsp;at Londonewcastle Project SpacePrivate View:&nbsp;Tuesday 16<sup class=\"ordinal\">th<\/sup> December, 6\u20139pmTalk:&nbsp;Sunday 11<sup class=\"ordinal\">th<\/sup> January Exhibition Dates:&nbsp;16 December 2014 to 11 January 2015, Tuesday to Saturday, 12\u20136pm Address:&nbsp;Londonewcastle Project Space, 28 Redchurch St, London E2 7DP Nearest Station:&nbsp;Shoreditch High Street (National Rail and Overground) Katrina Blannin with Kate Terry | Maurice Carlin&nbsp;\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":798,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"wp_typography_post_enhancements_disabled":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,20],"tags":[],"coauthors":[30],"class_list":["post-797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exhibition","category-events","post_format-post-format-image","column","twocol"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=797"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/797\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1405,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/797\/revisions\/1405"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=797"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/insight.lancaster.ac.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcoauthors&post=797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
