Mission Statement
The Institute of Social Hypocrisy is an artist led project
operating over a two-year period. The concept of social hypocrisy will
provide the thread of continuity for the various art projects that will take
place at the institution throughout its existence.
A series of artists and curators will be invited to develop events in
order to allow free, apolitical discussion and debate.
The program will be open to diverse art practices including
installation, talks, and performance.
Two in-house magazines will be published each year that will contain
text and images connected with the work produced as part of the program.
Art practitioners will also contribute to book projects to be defined
during the lifespan of the institution.
The institute is the vision of the artist Victor Boullet who has, for a
number of years, been producing work associated with the idea that
people conduct themselves in a certain manner in order to
be accepted, evenwhen this may be contradictory to their true beliefs.
He wanted to find a platform that would allow others to come and
explore their own ideas that could be linked to these notions of falsehood.
