 About W.O.R.K
    O
riginally named the Waxholm Organisation för Reformerandet av Konst and recently re-named World Organisation Reforming Konst. It was first registered in1994 by Swedish artists who were not affiliated to any recognized group or organisation but were interested in 'emotional intelligent art creation'. Their mission was to exhibit this form of art and support artists who create art embuded with emotional intelligence. W.O.R.K now design exhibition spaces within private and public sponsored exhibitions, produce and publish art review books and organize limited edition prints on behalf of member artists.
 
     The first exhibition designed by WORK was in1995 at the 'Eden' culture building in central Stockholm.
The exhibition 'the Blue Path' featured two artists, a poet (Bosse Montgomery) and a guest painter (Denis Taylor). After a number of small city gallery shows W.O.R.K staged the 'ArtWorkNow 96' exhibition at the Krut Gallery (1996) located within the Kastellet near Waxholm. In 1998 the first of two major exhibitions was delivered, 'Kliver Ut' ('stepping out') at the Rindö Art Gallery, Rindö Castle, Sweden. It featured visual artists, musicians and poets. 'Kliver Ut 2' was mounted at the 'Trygg Hansa Art Expo' at the Companies HQ in Stockholm. W.O.R.K  also exhibited at the Karolinska Terminal Cancer Department, Skandia Futures Center, Tornvilla Conference Center and numerous smaller open public exhibitions. In 1998 W.O.R.K was selected to mount an exhibition in benefit to the relatives of the 1994 MSS Estonia ferry disaster . The exhibition 'Heart 2 Art' was opened on January 11th 2002 by Mona Sahlin of the Swedish Government at the Steninge Palace Culture Gallery in Stockholm.
It featured over twenty artists from nine countries and eighty one works of art. W.O.R.K also organized and created a contemporary version of 'waiting for Godot'. (Beckett). The brainchild of Ulf Ekeram (Studion Theatre Stockholm) the drama was performed four times, twice in Stockholm and twice in Waxholm. (2001 and 2002). W.O.R.K has also exhibited at the Mulberry Gallery in Dorset UK 2005 (Blue Path- revisited) and at 'Art Space 24' Wellington House Manchester UK (this is not a chair) September 2007. The 'Second Chance' exhibition is planned for 2009.

       W.O.R.K continue to offer design, promotion and accept commissions for unique exhibitions helping artists who have sustainable and emotional intelligent art as a basis for their artistic expression.
