Wall to Wall is an exhibition of artists' works inspired by the legacy and spirit of Kurt Schwitters. The pieces on show were originally commissioned for Film and Video Umbrella's online showcase MerzBank. For this show, the commissioned artworks are presented in proximity to Schwitters' famous Merz Barn wall at the Hatton Gallery in Newcastle. Adding a new focus, this exhibition highlights the relationship between the digital and material that was a feature of that project. The exhibition underlines the interplay between transience and permanence, between the disposable and the durable, that was so central to Schwitters' aesthetic.
