Moorkind Productions present a live Global Art Machine. A collaboration between Kenneth G Hay, Andrew Kelly and Richard Taylor. Linked via video web link artists in Leeds and Xiamen, China will interact through a formulated art machine to unite Eastern and Western practice. The event is held as part of Andrew Kelly's solo exhibition (THIS) Apparent Nothing at the Chinese European Art Centre in Xiamen. Artists will be responding to certain instructions within specific parameters. Through formulated excersises, the idea of proportions within space will translate to artists of any origin to link perceptual / architectural space with conceptual space, creating interactive happenings, drawings, video pieces and more. Language shall not hinder or dictate proceedings. The aim is to identify and connect the distinctions between Chinese and British Art Practice. Members of the public visiting the exhibition will be encouraged to participate as part of the formulae. XTOL is creating a basic structure to witness exhilarating moments of creativity happening on different sides of the globe unified through art.www.andrewkelly.info www.moorland-productions.com www.chinanow.org.uk www.rich-taylor.co.uk
