TEL-TALK<\/strong><\/em>
\nart interventions in telephone booths<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Tel-talk<\/strong><\/em> project brings together artists of varying backgrounds, from across the country, to perform in and or animate a telephone booth in response to themes surrounding public spaces, and the disappearance of traditional phone booths. Artists and writers were invited to contribute a site-specific installation, artwork, or short work of fiction, which references a unique telephone booth location. The installations began in September 2011 and continue through to July 2012. Over the last nine months, each installation was announced and documented on the Tel-talk <\/strong><\/em>blog (http:\/\/tel-talk.blogspot.ca\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Exhibition photographs available at http:\/\/telephoneboothgallery.ca\/tel-talk.html<\/a><\/p>\n

The Tel-talk<\/strong><\/em> project culminates in an exhibition of various works and photo documentations at the Telephone Booth Gallery in Toronto’s Junction neighbourhood along with a book launch which outlines contributions to the project in (phone) book form under the Tightrope Books<\/strong><\/a> imprint. The project continues online with an open invitation to artists and writers to make their own art interventions.<\/p>\n

Selected artists and writers (Tel-talkers) include:<\/strong> Barry Callaghan, Dyan Marie, Julie Voyce, Lizz Aston, Jessica Westhead, Otino Corsano, Tim Laurin, Sheila Butler, Steven Tippin, Stuart Keeler, Tara Cooper, Terry O’Neill and many more. Full list of participants and online: http:\/\/tel-talk.blogspot.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Coordinated by: <\/strong>Paola Poletto, Liis Toliao and Yvonne Koscielak<\/p>\n
