βWhile the question of whether authorship can be separated from artwork continues to baffle professional and amateur philosophers alike, Gravity Art Space β a contemporary gallery run by two former mathematicians with a focus on events and community building β is stirring the pot with THE NO NAME SHOW 3.0. Without those pesky little artist names, and the accompanying weight of artistic ownership, you can freely wonder about an artworkβs subject or technique, or even whether that blobby painting is actually good. Now in its third iteration, the free-for-all exhibition features a range of media, including painting, drawing and sculpture. What began in 2021 as an observational experiment on the collecting habits of the galleryβs patrons has proved to be a compelling premise that builds upon wider questions of, yes, authorship but also authority, taste and contemporary connoisseurship.β
