Spent the morning going through all the submissions so far from the next Mixtape show (well the one’s we hadn’t already responded to), had some good art in from a painter based in Cambridge today, and from an artist working in Brazil, I do keep saying we like the way this on-line shows take us…
MIxtape No.2 will be another carefully curated artist-led online group show brought to you once more by Cultivate. Once again most of the artists will be directly invited but the open call element and hearing from artists we don’t know yet (or haven’t worked with for a bit) is very important. We’d like to hear…
And the exhibition is open – Cultivate presents Three x Three (Part Five) – an online art exhibition featuring Melike, Mark Burrell and Sofia Martins Gray. here’s the link This, we do believe, is the twenty-third carefully curated on-line show from Cultivate and something like 178th Cultivate exhibition or event in the now eleven year…
Where have we been since Five Points? Well both Emma and I, for it is the two of us who run Cultivate, have been taking a break from all the cultivation to focus on our own work. We are first and foremost artists first and curators second and Cultivate has sucked up a lot of…

The 2020 Art Car Boot Fair is almost upon us, and as you’d expect with all that is happening right now, things are a little different this year. In past years we have been at the Art Car Boot Fair as Cultivate, in past years Emma and I have invited others to join us under…

We did actually start running on-line shows alongside the physical gallery shows back in 2017, well before this damn covid thing infected everything. We were always going to curate…
