Discussion events based around self-initiated projects, DIY approaches and artist-curators.
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.
Most of the artists in Nought to Sixty are under thirty-five, few of them have had significant commercial exposure, and in most cases this is their first opportunity to mount a solo project in a major public space.
The season is not intended to announce any new generation or style, but to build up a multifaceted portrait of the emerging art scene in the two countries, and to provide a space for exchange.
The Nought to Sixty programme consists of:

Cher Monsieurs et Madames - mes amis et collègues of great refinement.
Miss B's Salons are discussion events which might, at different times, entail presentations, recitals, readings, film screenings and workshops. There is a loose theme around self-initiated projects, DIY approaches and artist-curators. The first series of six salons, supported by Artquest's Forum programme, welcomed a core group of invited artists and curators such as Melanie Carvalho, Ben Roberts and Spartacus Chetwynd. Miss B now works in collaboration with different hosts at each venue - galleries, pubs, homes and studios - to curate each event. Victuals and libations are provided where possible. Attendance is generally by invitation, but new guests will also be received. Past locations include Limoncello, Transition and the Wenlock Arms. Miss B welcomes offers and ideas to collaborate from potential hosts. Salutations distinguées.
