anonymous gallery featured four temporary, public art installations, lasting four days, beginning October 16, 2008 and ending on October 19, 2008. Four 20ft x 8ft shipping containers were placed curbside, near two separate major art institutions. Artists Monica Canilao, Maya Hayuk, Greg Lamarche and Anthony Lister were each be given a container to create an installation. The contents of those public displays were then re-translated as indoor installations for exhibition until November 22nd, 2008.
The ambitious project intends to create a dialogue between the institutions, the public, and the city itself. It is an exploration into the work of four artists who come from a history in public art / street art but transcend in any form.
