EMERGENCY ROOM – artists give emergency treatments to current events

Emergency Room is a constantly changing exhibition space commenting on current events. Emergency Room creates a hotline to the public and mass media. Everyday there is a new reaction and new reasons for audience and media to tune back in. It is an international movement, from internationally acclaimed artists to local upcoming artists – all meeting each other on location, working together to meet their deadline. ER is encouraging artists to collaborate and become part of the energized community by tearing down the limitations and boundaries of the traditional customs of the art world.

Emergency Room has been successfully launched in New York, PS1 / MOMA 2007 ; Berlin, Galerie Olaf Stueber 2006 ; Denmark, Nikolaj Contemporary2006 ; Athens, Ileana Tounta Gallery 2007 ; Napoli , PAN 2009 ; Paris , Galerie Taïss (2008 ), Hanoi at the university of fines art 2009
