Black Dogs
Eggs, Flour, Milk, Cheese
25 ways of keeping occupied

at 42 New Briggate, Leeds, LS1 6NU

Gallery open 12pm – 7pm Tues – Sat until 27th June

Black Dogs, Leeds’ DIY-curious art collective, revisit the gallery
exhibition format in their newly expanded form with over 20 art-doers.
Art as an everyday activity is chewed over through fan-fiction video
homage, committed doodling, chance-poetry readings, obsessive
collecting, playing with matches (and match boxes), cup thievery and
beer labelling, homeless dog befriending, work-gym-eat cycles and
coating things in metal to name but a bit.

Naturally, art as the everyday doesn’t fit so easily in the gallery so
expect additional off-site and event centred critical-amusement on
similar themes through clandestine café meet-ups, sibling behavioural
experiments and in-house performance etcetera, including the chance to
discover what the average perfect Leeds night out is once and for all.

42 New Briggate will act as both the exhibition space and the HQ to
experience and discover where many of the satellite activities occur,
making attendance at the opening event on Thursday June 12th a
prerequisite to ensure exhaustive Black Dogs consumption.

Exhibitors, performers, makers, players and writers include A Couple
of Swells (Luke Drozd and Michael Lawton), James Hill, Nick Jones and
Jonathan Kenworthy, Rinkadon, Andy Abbott, Lawrence Abu-Hamdan, Haley
Roe, Jon Slight, Charlotte Beevor-Reid, No Fixed Abode (Horatio
Eastwood and Terry Slater), Lawrence Molloy, Michael Burkitt, Dan
Carey, Mick Welbourn, Eleanor Johnson, Eva Rowson, Janis Rafailidou,
Iona Smith, Harry Meadley, Alex Farrar, Chloë and Bryony Pritchard,
Steven Allbutt, Yvonne Carmichael, Jen Ohlson, Dave Ronalds.
