Invited artists will send documentation of their work as images, texts and video directly to the gallery electronically where the material will be printed out and displayed on walls and screens by the curatorial team with the exhibition being produced in the gallery during its run. A submission / suggestion system utilising social networking sites Facebook, Del.icio.us and Twitter will also be provided. (Conor McGarrigle and John Buckley)
