Huxley-Parlour are pleased to announce In Three Acts, a group exhibition.

Includes: Katelyn Eichwald, Oliver Mulvihill, Stephen Polatch, Sophie Ruigrok, Rafal Topolewski.

Classic storytelling structure is divided into three acts. The first act introduces characters and the world they inhabit. This is followed by rising action and conflict in the second act and resolution in the third. Exposition, confrontation, denouement.

The three-act structure provides the intellectual framework for this exhibition. This exhibition is not about characters, the portrayal of events, action or conflict. It is about the slippages between those things that artists use to conjure narrative. It is also about the number three: a historically magical number that retains a certain hold in contemporary practice.
