After the success of their first three exhibitions the team behind PLAN.OPEN. Return to arebyte in Hackney Wick to

curate another diverse and critical showcase of emerging artists. PLAN.OPEN. set up by Curator and Gallerist Nimrod

Vardi with international Artist Caroline Jane Harris seeks to implement exhibitions selected from open calls providing

artists of all backgrounds an opportunity to exhibit in London and create further networks and opportunities through

sales, press, exposure and the online legacy of each show. Exhibitions are formed through conceptual and aesthetic

threads drawn out from the submitted artworks, the theme is completely open to interpretation and individual works are

selected on merit and not previous achievements.

Applying artists details will be stored (with consent) and considered for future exhibitions and projects.

The theme of this year's PLAN.OPEN. Is Neo Craft, with guest curator Agnese Reginaldo.
