A cumulative lists of all artists and projects involved in Nought to Sixty.
Nought to Sixty presents sixty projects by emerging artists based in Britain and Ireland over six months from 5 May to 2 November 2008.

The first and only contemporary art agency in Wales.
Based in Cardiff, Mermaid & Monster is the first and only contemporary art agency in Wales, formed in January 2007 by artists Gordon Dalton and Richard Higlett. Representing artists at various career stages, both locally and internationally, Mermaid & Monster develops gallery and off-site projects, takes artists to international art fairs and works with them to produce limited edition prints. Recent presentations include Year 07 at County Hall, London; Loners' Island, at g39 Cardiff; and the upcoming Rotate exhibition at the Contemporary Art Society, London (September– December 2008).
