RM

Now in its tenth year, RM (formerly Room103 and Room) is Auckland’s longest running artist-run-project space. At the heart of the rm-project is its gallery, supporting the work of local artists through short-run shows and extended projects, whilst continuing to develop interactions and exchanges with artist-run-projects throughout Australia and Europe. The rm-project also encompasses a number of satellite projects, including SHOP103 (a venue for multiple artworks and editions) and the Dear Reader mail-art project, as well as producing work as a collective—most recently with the festival tote-bag Carry-On rm103, and a shoe-shining fundraiser. Recent rm-project publications have included SOAP magazine and Nights of our Lives—a book of art dreams.

split/fountain

S/F merges at least 3 forms of production and dissemination – art, design, and print – through its operation as a shop, design studio, project space, exhibition venue, niche publishing house and pocket-scaled laboratory for urban aesthetics and collaborative thinking. The project’s title also alludes to Duchamp’s infamous fountain – S/F sees its gradations between commerce, art, ideas and printed matter as speculative, experimental, and adaptable.

S/F stages art exhibitions that change every six weeks or so; working with artists as well as designers and architects. The space and furniture are rearranged regularly to accommodate the special requirements of each new exhibition. S/F has its own publishing imprint, producing publications, newspapers and artists’ editions. As a shop/reading-room, it also stocks an ever-expanding range of local and international art and design catalogues, print editions, artworks, and small run publications unavailable elsewhere in the country.

The Blue Oyster

The Blue Oyster Arts Trust (BOAT) was founded in Dunedin in 1999 as the governing body of the Blue Oyster Art Project Space that provides a high quality, dynamic program of experimental and innovative contemporary art practice. BOAT is a non-profit and non-commercial organisation that is made up of practicing artists, curators and other creative professionals. The art project space allows a diverse range of artists to work experimentally, free from commercial restraints and irrespective of the stage of their career. We aim to broaden the interest and understanding of contemporary arts by providing a forum for discussion and debate regarding contemporary art issues.
