Hack and Host

Hack and Host Contemporary Arts Events Hack & Host is a collective of artists who have a mutual interest in raising the quality of contemporary art in Hull.

Hack & Host will showcase contemporary art through interactive, participatory work, interventions, live art performances, and artist talks. We are a social space where conversation is generated around the theme of contemporary art from the viewpoints of the maker and the participant. We hope to challenge views and perceptions through progressive and experimental works. We aim to:

Increase the vis

ibility of quality contemporary arts in Hull

Generate conversation about contemporary art’s place in the city

Create a ‘space’ for contemporary art

Maintain artistic integrity

Produce participatory events that showcase and discuss contemporary artwork and culture

Develop an exchange of art in and outside of the city
