FAN RIOT

Fan Riot is a project by Owen G. Parry with contributing artists and fans. It includes original research, a Fan Club series, publications, and the creation of transformative artworks and performances.

Fan Riot explores the phenomenon of fandom at a time when distinctions between the professional and the amateur, the artist and the fan are increasingly diminishing. It contemplates the ways artist and fans are negotiating these cultural shifts; making way for new expressive languages, and unusual and imaginative forms of creativity and collectivity.
