In 2009 Anne Bean initiated a year-long project with artists from Northern Ireland, Croatia, Israel and Kurdistan-Iraq.
The ensuing collaboration, vexed by problems with frontiers, borders, demarcations, boundaries, barriers, bureaucracy, officialdom, laws, regulations, visas and rules culminated in a lecture demonstration with virtual and real-time performance that has subsequently been made and re-made in response to specific events, sites and invitations.
PAVES artists are Poshya Kakl, Anne Bean, Vlasta Delimar, Efi Ben-David and Sinead O’Donnell. They are next part of a group exhibition at The New Art Gallery, Walsall, The Life of the Mind, curated by Bob and Roberta Smith.
