ARTSHO5

2014 Istanbul

The 5th annual exhibition of the ARTSHO explored the subject of Experimentation, which is a process that both artists and scientists share. The team included 8 international artists and an architect, who worked together to convert a derelict space into a makeshift art lab, in under 3 days. The aim of the event itself was to produce 8 interactive artworks with the public in real time. Social media posts with the hashtag #ARTSHO5 were streamed into the lab 24/7 and a 9th project involved a transatlantic collaboration between Istanbul, Turkey and Durham, USA.
