Sunday, the gallery-led art fair, will return to London for its third edition from 11-14th October 2012 at Ambika P3, Marylebone Rd.

Showing a selection of 20 young international galleries from 10 countries, Sunday is recognised as an integral part of the London, UK and international cultural landscape. Housed in Ambika P3, a 14,000 square foot, triple height subterranean space, SUNDAY is free and open to all and last year welcomed over 6000 visitors. This year Sunday will also feature Sunday School, an extended public programme of specially commissioned artist projects, performances and events.

Over ten new galleries will be making their Sunday debut this year. The four day event provides an easy-going and accessible temporary platform for each gallery to exhibit their artists’ work; it is a fair with no booths or divisions, allowing the exhibiting organisations to show solo or duo artist presentations that respond directly to the imposing space.

This edition will also feature an extended public programme, including large-scale publishing projects and performances that, each day, will transform the fair environment. Already a must-see event, Sunday makes a valuable contribution to the most exciting cultural week in London and gives audiences the opportunity to discover new artists and galleries in an intimate and immediate way.

Kraupa-Tuskany (Berlin), will present Absolute Vitality Inc., an ongoing project by Aids-3D (Daniel Keller and Nik Kosmas). Absolute Vitality Inc. is a growing mixed media, sculptural environment that combines a vertical garden of living plants, LED backlit chrome signs and screens to explore the relationship between art, technology, energy, economics and social activism.

Artist Cornelia Baltes, exhibiting with Limoncello (London), will work directly onto the walls of the Ambika P3 space to produce a new, large-scale, temporary painting. Recently graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art, she has featured in Bloomberg New Contemporaries and the John Moores Painting Prize.

Simone Subal (New York) has devised an intergenerational presentation featuring drawings and paintings by Kiki Kogelni from the 1960’s, alongside recently produced videos by Erika Vogt. Although from different generations, both artists investigate the complexity of representation and issues relating to the formation of subjectivity. The juxtaposition of the two female artist’s work, acts as a meditation on what constitutes ‘contemporary’ and suggest that to be contemporary does not necessarily mean to be of the times, but instead to be with the times.

As part of Sunday School artist Jonathan Monk, in collaboration with Three Star Books and design team OK-RM, will produce Billboard Book Project – London. Installed on the mezzanine level, overlooking the rest of the fair, the work will consist of a giant internal billboard poster and publication that acknowledges everyone involved in the production of the project; from the artist himself through to the person who packed the work for shipping.

Chez Baz, Chez Chaz, is an artist-led bar produced by nascent curatorial duo B.C. (Barnie Page and Charlie Hood). Each day of the fair, an ‘artist du jour’ will style the overall look, feel and function of the space, producing a ‘totalwork’ that includes novel environments to eat and drink in, as well as entertaining artist led events.

The public programme will also feature projects by Aye-Aye Books (Glasgow) and publishing house Archive Kabinett (Berlin). cura., Elephant, Frieze, ICA, Kaleidoscope and Mousse will be included in the publications section.
