Brief Permanence - exhibition at Art Gene

A mixed-media exhibition exploring the meaning and contradictions of circus through the works of three British Artists, Rosalind Davis, Shelley Love and Michaela Nettell. Part of Zircus Plus, Barrows International Circus Festival.

Shelley Love's film 'The Forgotten Circus' tells the story of a circus adrift, forgotten, lost forever in time.

Michaela Nettell's video projections on glass explore ideas of illusion, impermanence and flight. Rosalind Davis' mixed-media paintings focus on structures that appear neglected but which are of vital importance to the individuals who use them. Curated by Irina Stark.

Friday 15 July              7-9pm
Saturday 16 July        12-6pm
Sunday 17 July           12-6pm
at Art Gene, The Nan Tait Centre, Bath Street, Barrow LA14 5TY.
