The Autobiography of a Super-Tramp
Preview 1 June 2012
6 June - 25 August 2012
After a major relocation and reimagining of G39, we are pleased to announce the first exhibition in our expansive new premises. June sees Oxford Street, Cardiff open its doors for the first time as an exhibition space with work from thirteen Welsh and Wales based artists at various stages of their career.
The Autobiography of A Super-Tramp looks at two different approaches to pursuing our goals – whether we focus our ambitions at home or further afield. It features those artists who embed themselves in a locality or scene and those who adopt the position of a romantic ‘Littlest Hobo’ outsider, their nomadic practice embracing globalisation and increasing inter-national homogeneity. The local is often seen as static and unique, a place of fixity, tradition and continuity. It is often contrasted with the global, a supposed realm of unfettered mobility and dynamism, of continuous transformation. Those artists who move toward these opportunities, wherever that takes them pit the lure of the unknown against the desire to remain.
