Fax Ex-Machina is a project which came about due to the high taxes and blindsided custom laws that make it impractical to import and export art in and out of Brazil. The situation has become so difficult that both the Metropolitan Museum and MOMA NY refused to loan works of art to any institution or museum in Brazil due to the customs procedures.
Using the lo-fi means of fax machines KK aim to avoid these extortionate charges and showcase young talent in and outside of Brazil.
Four Brazilian artists will fax work from POP Gallery in Sao Paulo to be showcased within KK Outlet, whilst four UK artists will produce art work live at KK Outlet and transmit their pieces, to Sao Paulo.
Representing Brazil will be Eduardo Recife, Carlos Dias, Ramon Martins and Elisa Sassi, whilst the UK crew will include Jimmy Turrell, McBess, andrew Clark and Billie Jean.
