NEWSROOM is an evolving exhibition that explores the relationship between art, newspapers, and the circulation of stories. Taking place across Division of Labour and Paradise Works this November, the project transforms the gallery into a live newsroom and print workshop, inviting collaboration, contribution, and participation from artists, writers, organisers, and the public. The backdrop of The Newsroom will be artworks by The Artist Taxi Driver, alongside contributions from other invited artists (to be confirmed), setting the tone for a space charged with urgency, dissent, humour, and dialogue.
