Para-Cities: Models for Public Spaces.

Exhibitions Co-ordinator: Lucy Steeds.

Vito Acconci is one of the most influential artists to have emerged from New York in the 1960s. His provocative and radical work has explored the body as a physical, psychological and social phenomenon across a variety of media, including writing, performance, video, film, installations and sculpture.

Recently Acconci has extended his interest in personal space to public space, and he has focused exclusively on architecture and the built environment, with large-scale architectural projects. This exhibition features an installation of models made for some of Acconci's public project proposals. They will be installed in an environment designed for Arnolfini by Acconci and his studio Ð a collective of artists and architects. This is a rare opportunity to view Acconci's work, which has not been widely shown in the UK.

Trouble Shooting - The impact of Acconci's work on younger artists is widespread. Trouble Shooting is a group exhibition of artists whose work picks up on some of the issues relating to Acconci's interest in the built environment. During the exhibition, the artist will be delivering a lecture at Arnolfini and giving a reading. Full details will be available in the February/March calendar.

Opening hours - Monday to Saturday - from 10.00 am to 11.00 pm (Exhibitions until 7.00pm) - Sundays and Bank Holidays - from 12.00 noon to 10.30 pm (Exhibitions until 6.00pm)
