How many artists does it take to change a light bulb?
... and what will be illuminated?

This inaugural exhibition will bring together ten artist-led organisations currently working in Ireland and ask them to consider the question, how do we think?

This question is also an invitation that stipulates that the answer be articulated as a new collaborative, physical artwork. The exhibition will include over thirty artists, most of whom are well known in both Irish and International contemporary art circles and all of whom are working to a contemporary budget.
