About


”OVER OVER OVER” refers to connected art exhibitions that bring artists from Glasgow to Detroit and vice versa. This project is rooted in Artist-Curator Cedric Tai's introduction to the artistic community of Glasgow, which he saw as having similarities to Detroit's developing art scene. These cities could serve as an ideal model for artists to re-imagine each others potential.

By facilitating an exchange and opening it up to the public, there is a unique opportunity to explore what it means to be an artist, creating and sustaining art practices in these cities. Cedric Tai initiated the project with five Glasgow-based artists, Tessa Lynch, Francis McKee, John Nicol, Rosie O'Grady, and Ross Sinclair.

The project has been awarded the 2015 Knight Arts Challenge Grant, meaning that the conversations will continue in Phase 2, generating connecting points, more exhibitions and curatorial projects between Detroit, Glasgow and all over.
