Free For All

Free for All was Sweet 'Art's final exhibition in the Art Bypass Gallery and created be a frenetic embodiment of our mission to create non -pretentious, non-exclusive and fun environments for exhibiting and thinking about art. Free for All embraced our open submission policy but with a difference! An exhibition that was open to all, on a first come first serve basis, artists were invited to bring their artworks to the gallery on a designated drop off day and we promised regardless to exhibit their art as long as we had room. No submission forms, no selection panels, not themes, just ART! Our opening arty party for this exhibition was a closing party for the Art Bypass Gallery and we hope Free for All will challenge the potential for nepotism and non-inclusive practice in the art world, even for organizations like Sweet ‘Art, that actively resist such exclusions. We hope Free for All will be a fun, diverse and interesting way for us as an organization to make new friends, create new networks and meaningfully carry out our mission, values and ethos for the next 10 years!
