switch 2012 - Selected artists announced

The selection process.


Earlier this month I travelled to Trongate 103 in Glasgow to sit on the curatorial panel of switch 2012.

After a long day of heated deliberation we decided that the following artists will have their work shown on the streets of Nenagh in February.

Sarah Buckius, Aiken/USA,
Flatform, Milano/Italy,
Paul Grimmer, Newcastle upon Tyne/UK,
Fergus Fullarton Pegg, Glasgow/UK,
Mark Neville, Glasgow/UK,
Lucie Kim & Felix von der Weppen, New York/USA,
David Theobald, East Twickenham/UK,
Nathalie Lavoie, Fort Simpson/Canada

The theme this year was 'Balance' and about 150 artists from around the globe entered their work.

Congratulations to those artists selected.
