Abstract

Fourteen British artists were commissioned for Small Acts at the Millennium to create a series of works marking the personal and political resonances of the Millennium and the charged questions it raised. Against a backdrop of global corporate pageantry, they created a series of actions and site-specific works across the year that were dissident and personal, exploring issues such as individual and community histories, memory, anonymity, mental health, public space, disability, rumours and hitchhiking. Artists included: Graeme Miller, Bobby Baker, Mike Pearson, Kira O’Reilly, Brian Catling, cris cheek and Kirsten Lavers.
