Millennium Promenade, the pedestrian walkway off Millennium Square containing Pizza Express and not much else, is currently playing host to Spike Island’s first off-site venue.
The temporary gallery is part of the Bloomberg New Contemporaries exhibition, which runs until November 10 before touring to the ICA in London.
Bloomberg New Contemporaries has provided a national platform for fine art graduates annually since 1949. Spike Island last hosted the touring exhibition in 2005.
This year’s open call resulted in more than 1,500 submissions from final year students and recent graduates based in the UK.
Forty six artists have been included in the exhibition, including Spike Associates members and UWE graduates Menna Cominetti and Jason Brown.
Spike Island and Millennium Promendade are linked via the cross-harbour ferry, with the work spread between the two venues.
Both galleries are open Tuesday to Sunday, midday to 5pm, with free entry.
