For 3 hours on Saturday, July 25, faxes will be exchanged between the participating venues. Bring artworks, texts, and provocations to fax, create and send works ‘live’ in response to what is transmitted on the day, or just drop in and observe the action.This event launches a world tour of FAX, curated by João Ribas. Over 400 faxes from architects, designers, scientists and filmmakers have contributed to the first stage, including Tauba Auerbach, Cecil Balmond, Barbara Bloom, Yona Friedman, Dan Graham, Wade Guyton, Claire Fontaine, Glenn Ligon, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Mai-Thu Perret, Seth Price, Edward Tufte, and Wolfgang Tillmans, and as the show makes its tour more and more contributions will be included.
