Synopsis

It's assumed that society in general would respond with utter indifference if contemporary artists were to go on strike. The hands-on curator Gavin Wade posed the difficult question 'How does/could/would the withdrawal of art affect the world?' to over 100 contemporary artists, writers and curators. The various responses are mounted in a physical exhibition as well as this book, design by Gudmund Aarseth adjusted by the artist Liam Gillick. The impressive array of respondents whose replies range from openly sincere letters to light projections include Conrad Atkinson, Artlab, Fiona Banner, Martin Creed, Bill Drummond, Rebecca Gordon-Nesbitt, Susan Hiller, John Latham, Gustav Metzger, Jeremy Millar, Paul Noble and many more.
