Brickworks

Brickworks is an artist run gallery for diverse art projects. Our activities vary a lot and are in constant metamorphosis. So far we have arranged exhibitions, studio-swaps, video art festivals, performances, experimental music, and more, and created different venues. In our own view the primary task is to show artistry we find interesting and important. The Brickworks creates within our own premises, but has also worked with Street in Stockholm and most recently at V.art.09 in Värnamo. Soon we will also come to work with the Grand movie theatre in Stockholm. We operate as a collective in building environments in which we highlight and accentuate other works. For Värnamo we built an apartment in which we showed a sculpture by Davíd Murua Martinez and video work by Daniel Andersson. In Brickworks we usually use each others’ networks to reach appealing artists. Until now we have shown artists from Germany, USA, Mexico, Denmark, UK and Iceland, but mostly from Sweden. At Supermarket 2010 we will present Jakob Eklund’s artwork “In the flesh”.
