Goldfcatory is back! First Past the Post...

post

First Past the Post is a carefully chosen selection of works from GF artists and some who are new to GF.

Following the closure of the project space several artists who were scheduled to develop new projects with us had to be informed that this was no longer possible. GF has now been able to make amends by including them in this show.

This is the first exhibition in this new space which opens on November 11th it is anticipated that throughout the exhibition period new work will arrive at the gallery and replace the existing work (or in a more hopeful manner replace the work that has been sold).

At the end of this exhibition much of the work will be taken to Bank Street Arts in Sheffield and be shown as part of the Big Hang. GF has a developing relationship with Bank Street Arts which we hope will flourish over the forthcoming year.

Goldfactory has been looking at numerous new possibilities for development in particular international projects with a gallery in Berlin and an exchange programme with an arts collective in Sao Paulo in Brazil.

GF keeps on shining!

Watch this space....

Research Space 12: Julian Woodcock

    I have made friends with this space this month. I have driven  through the low winter sun excited. I clutched chewing jaws of cold  key-metal. A black door – cleaning in progress – an old factory. I  always had difficulty unlocking the red door. I sometimes looked  through the keyhole at my work before entering [...]

Research Space 09: Pauline Woolley

‘The Goldfactory needs funding and it needs to stay and this is why… As a studio-less artist in desperate need of room to reacquaint myself with paint, The Goldfactory Research Space was a golden (excuse the pun) opportunity to be handed.  I had four weeks to focus and create anything I desired [...]
