Halfbread Club Sunset Gathering

When resources and space become increasingly limited, what can artists do, and how should we possibly act and react towards each other? Halfbread Club invites artists to share half of their resources with one another. The collective SOMEHOW will share half of Goethe-Institut's 190m² gallery and black box studio, along with a budget of $8000 from the Institut's ZEITGEIST Hong Kong series with the next artist. The next artist will then share half of their resources with another artist, based on their own discretion, and this will continue until there is no more space left… Any form of creation is welcome!

SOMEHOW applies the halfbread-technique* to radically share space and resources with other artists, examining the value of art and togetherness in times like these. If you would like to see what you could make out of such tight conditions within the time of one week, join us!

REGISTER AS A PARTICIPATING ARTIST NOW! (With a quota of 20 participants, first come, first served.)

If you would like to witness the process, or share your thoughts and wonders with us, feel free to come to Halfbread Club from 21.3. - 29.3. and take a look at what artists are working on at the Goethe-Institut.

*The Halfbread-technique was originated by Swiss artist Martin Schick who performed "Low Budget Performance Series: Halfbreadtechnique" at the Hong Kong Arts Centre during Art Basel in 2016.
