One week on, and yes, I will say so myself, I thought Interact was excellent, Sir Ian McKellen didn’t comment on his pasty or his pastry but he probably did as well, Marnie Scarlet got all brilliantly yellow, the neighbours got worried about the number of people showing up, there was interaction, cross-pollination, artists…
Interact happened, a group show, the work of 28 artists, the photos from the opening night, along with some words (and the confusion over the pasty that turned out to be a pastry) that were originally posted in the form of a review on the Organ pages can be read via this link – Sir Ian…
So Interact happened, people interacted, art excited, an art event took place.

This Thursday evening then, we’re excited, very excited, we think it just might be the best Cultivate show yet. Interact opens this Thursday evening in a great big white-walled space here in East London. The show will take place in an exciting art space just off the Hackney Road on the borders of Hackney, Dalston and Bethnal…
One week until Interact opens, the final artist line up is confirmed, we’re looking forward to it, the show opens next Thursday evening, there’s a Facebook event page if social media is your thing, we’ll continue adding little tastes of the artists here on the Cultivate website as we build up to the show and…
We don’t really know what Lucie MacGregor is going to do for her part of Interact next week, well we do, but we’ll keep it to ourselves and let you find out when the show opens on Thursday (and then follow up with more coverage and more here once the show has opened), we really don’t…
Two years ago this week were in the middle of the Play show, a beautiful big group show in what was then a soon to be torn down East London warehouse just off London Fields here in Hackney (gone now of course, more expensive flats controlled by property developers out to charge as much as…
Who is Nicole Weisz? Nicole first cross our path when she got involved in our Something Black show back at the start of May, as a result of the Black show we invited her to come and be part of the Interact show. Who is she? What’s show going to do? “My diverse practice revolves…

Who is Jasmin Reif? We don’t really know, she flew here via the open call we held for the forthcoming Interact show. Alongside the artists we directly invited to take part, we wanted to find five artists we knew nothing about, fresh blood and new art. We ended up selecting eight from the many many…
Interact is now 15 days away, Interact is the latest of many (many) group shows from Cultivate, we like to think we do things a slightly different way here at Cultivate, it is mostly about exciting art though, about the excitement of showing art, of artists coming together and doing it in a positive way. …
