About the Exhibition
Art et al. held its first UK exhibition, Season One at Cromwell Place, London. The exhibition was presented as part of the UK/Australia Season 2021-22, a joint initiative from the British Council and the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
In line with Art et al.'s ethos of championing a more diverse contemporary art world, Season One exhibited neurodivergent, intellectually and learning-disabled artists, alongside their non-disabled peers. A focus of the exhibition was the work produced during five Peer/Peer collaborations – digital residencies pairing international artists with and without disabilities. Artists discussed in the commissioned published texts, including in essays by Jennifer Higgie, Francesca Gavin, and Katrina Schwarz, also featured.
