About the Artists
Exchange Gallery was set up initially by Jonah King and Andreas Kindler von Knobloch in October 2009. Roisin Beirne, Joseph Noonan-Ganley, Sam Keogh, and James O’Haoda joined in as the project developed. After exactly one year, a close curatorial group had formed, and we realised it was time to hand the space over to a new group of people. We continue to work on independent projects together under the banner of Example.
Exchange Dublin was initiated as a space where ideas could be explored and expressed; where projects could be incubated, grow, or fail; where processes could be investigated without the pressure of an end result. It was imperative, therefore, that the visual culture aspect of the project, Exchange Gallery (EG), would mirror that sentiment.
The EG curatorial group functioned voluntarily and selected proposals from an open call or nomination every 3 months. Projects were prioritised in their seeming necessity to utilise the Exchange Gallery for their success. The group wanted the space to be used in a multiplicity of ways in accordance with each project. EG facilitated residency-style occupations of the space for varying lengths of time, which often culminated in exhibitions, performances, gigs, workshops, and screenings, among other forms. EG asked all the artists to present their projects to the public, so the space was often used to host presentations and discussions.
