London’s theprintspace gallery is to host DayFour’s “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” exhibition. ??The idea for this exhibition was to explore something we in the affluent West have become very used to over the last few years: the ability to have most of our desires satisfied with comparative ease. The contributors were asked to think about wishes, desires, lusts, hopes, expectations. The exhibition will run from Friday the 11th of December until Wednesday the 30th of December (excluding bank holidays) at theprintspace gallery on 74 Kingsland Road.

You Can’t Always Get What You Want
at theprintspace gallery

theprintspace is proud to present the private view of DayFour’s “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” exhibition. 

In an ideal world, we could all work for a living three days a week and on the fourth day we’d do our own work, on whatever we love, are drawn to or excited by (of course, the three-day weekend goes without saying). This is the philosophy of DayFour, an annual magazine and website of personal work, mainly (but not exclusively) photographic. ??The idea for this issue, and exhibition, was to explore something we in the affluent West have become very used to over the last few years: the ability to have most of our desires satisfied with comparative ease. In this issue & exhibition, the contributors were asked to think about wishes, desires, lusts, hopes, expectations. The 28 contributors responded in surprisingly varied & personal ways.

The exhibition will run from Friday the 11th of December until Wednesday the 30th of December (excluding bank holidays) at theprintspace gallery on 74 Kingsland Road. The private view will be on Thursday the 10th of December, from 7pm to 10pm & as always, refreshments will be provided.  Theprintspace hopes to see everyone there, as this will be the last private view of the 2009 year!
