Eastside
Birmingham’s Digbeth district is currently undergoing a period of cultural regeneration. Once the city’s industrial heartland, it is now the home of empty buildings and dilapidated warehouses. Ikon has been presenting an ambitious programme of exhibitions, artists’ residencies, talks and events since November 2005. The 2007 programme has now finished and Ikon Eastside will be reopening in May 2008 in a new building on Fazeley Street, details to be announced next Spring.
Ikon's Off-site programme develops dynamic relationships between art, artists and audiences outside of the gallery. These projects and events vary enormously in scale, duration and type of location, challenging expectations of where art can be seen and by whom.
