Paul Sullivan / Static Gallery

Between 2008-9 Static Gallery carried out a project with its roots in Manet’s ‘A bar at the Folies-Bergere’ using an artwork as a mirror to reflect society. The project plots the setting up of a noodle bar on the outside of the gallery in Liverpool to be staffed by a Korean family selected by application. The project explores not only the technical, legal and bureaucratic frameworks of movement within a globalised society but also the emotions and desires that lie behind migration.

Noodle Bar is a part of the festival exhibition To The Reader curated by Benjamin Fallon.
