About White Box
Situated at 19 George Street, White Box is a white-walled window gallery in the front of the Fringe office. The highly visible street-facing window is right next to the Octagon and attracts hundreds of people daily who are simply walking by.
In keeping with the inclusive kaupapa of Dunedin Fringe Arts Trust, the core aim of White Box is to support and showcase a diverse range of engaging visual arts projects in an accessible environment. This provides a chance for arts practitioners, students, writers, curators and community projects to present work free from commercial and criterion restraints. As well as offering an opportunity to a variety of local artists, White Box intends to break through preconceived ideas of what art is, demonstrating to the public the diversity of work that can fall under the label ‘visual art.’
Much like the Fringe Festival, White Box’s key purpose is to get people excited and involved with art through its highly public location, and to support the work of a range of artists.
