fig-1 – 50 Projects in 50 Weeks

Spafax Publishing

An archive box for "fig-1," a project held at "Fragile House," a temporary housing complex in Soho, London.

fig-1 was a project that, in a relatively short space of time, managed to establish itself as something of a presence among London's many small white cube galleries. Curator Mark Francis and White Cube founder Jay Jopling organized 50 one-week exhibitions at the venue over 50 weeks. The programming was organised weeks in advance to remain as flexible as possible, showcasing the work of architects, writers, designers, musicians and artists. Divided into 50 sections, the book chronicles each project in the words of its participants through interviews, essays and visual documentaries. There are also portraits of each artist taken throughout the year, as well as photographs from the Monday night opening party, which became a cult Soho event over the past year.
