ALLKINDS is an art-book publication and online exhibition featuring creative work produced in quarantine by over 100 artists.
ALLKINDS is a unique and collaborative collective born out of quarantine. It is the first of its kind in offering both a virtual and physical archive, in the form of a dynamic Online Exhibition and a custom designed Art-Book publication, featuring the creative work produced by a diverse range of artists during quarantine.
The ALLKINDS online exhibition, at allkinds.gallery, showcases the work of over 100 artists including photographers, illustrators, filmmakers, musicians,designers, sculptors, writers and poets.
“We wanted ALLKINDS to be easily accessible to everyone as well as having a place to exist indefinitely. The website’s design allows anyone to easily navigate through the diverse online exhibition, to view each of the artists involved and find their respective contact information.” ~ Ais Brady, Creator of ALLKINDS.
The collective functionality of ALLKINDS is what makes it special. Encapsulating the creative life force of artists living and working during quarantine. It shows us the necessity to keep each other inspired but most importantly; connected.
As part of their online campaign ALLKINDS have partnered with LookyHere, a film production company, to create an imitate docu-series which features 10 of the ALLKINDS artists, including Douglas Reddan, JulieWeber, Daniёlle Siobhán and Owen de Forge.
The ALLKINDS art-book publication will be released this November. It is a custom designed hardback book with a savanna cloth cover. Its 96 pages are made up of 120gsm munken pure rough paper to enhance the attributes of the high quality images used for every artwork. The book features work created during quarantine by over 60 artists including Hugh O’Conor, Neasa Tierney, The Ballyboyz, Deborah Sheddy, Douglas Reddan, Una O’Connor and Leon Forristal.
“ALLKINDS is an open platform of expression for both emerging and experienced artists. While the online exhibition is a showcase of over 100 artists, the art-book itself is a curated selection of works by over 60 artists most suited to this output.”~ Ais Brady, Creator of ALLKINDS.
ALLKINDS have partnered with Hen’s Teeth to produce a limited edition A2 print of a featured artwork from the ALLKINDS exhibition. This printed edition of 20 is an exclusive to the ALLKINDS project and is made available only through the purchase of the art-book, with a print to be included in each of the first 20 copies sold.
Pre-orders for the artbook are available now on allkindsgallery.store with the official release of the book in stores in November.
All profits from sales of the art-book go to MASI, The Movement of Asylum Seekers Ireland, to aid their mission in highlighting the injustices of Direct Provision and ultimately demand an end to Direct Provision in Ireland.
