		Without You It's Nothing, Deptford X, London

		at Deptford X, Cockpit Arts, 18-22 Creekside, London SE8 (11 October 2008, 12-6pm)
		Presented by Collecting Live Art. Curated by artists Laura Eldret and PaulMart. You are invited to observe, participate and affect the process as we strive to allocate, divide and give a cultural value to the fund of £500. Artists have been invited to pitch for a hand full of the coins with propositions to realise an act independent of Deptford X. These moments are to be played out in the following days, creating their own subsequent events. The panel aims to support proposals, discuss merits, explore parameters and award some cash. The members of the panel are in flux; they can change at any point of the day. Along with our invited artists and curators, we invite people visiting the exhibition to propose an idea, artwork or act in return for remuneration. Without You It’s Nothing does not attempt to steal the moment,but to capture the performance of the pitch and to ask if this instance is enough? Contributing artists; Phil Ashcroft, Alex Baker, Alex Bettler,David Brazier, Rachel Lois Clapham – Open Dialogues, Ilsa Colsell, David Raymond Conroy, Ben Cove, Richard Dedomenici, James Ferris, Kate Hawkins and Eloise Fornieles, The Hut Project, Dunstan James,Tania Koswycz, Matt & Ross, Jennifer Medwid, Marieanne Mulvey, Harriet Murray, Lee Regan, Magali Reus, Nick Symes, Laurence Taylor, Neil Taylor, Ben Washington and Samuel Williams
