Gary Seven

curated by Ana Benlloch
9 - 15th May, Custard Factory, Birmingham

An exhibition based on the 60s Star Trek episode Assignment: Earth. This featured an agent called Gary Seven, his intelligent cat and assistant Roberta. It was designed to be a spin off series, but never made it. I wanted to give it a life outside of this, fulfilling it's potential in some way.

Artists were invited to respond to the episode in some way: an artwork based on something in the background, a response to the idea in general or something directly related to Gary Seven.

Artists: a.a.s., Ana Benlloch, Johnathan Branson, Lorsen Camps, Will McConnell, Richard Peel, James Preston, Angela Stride, Stuart Tait, David Thomas, Lisa Thompson, Justin Wiggan
