This article reviews the inaugral exhbitions of artist-run centre A Space, after it appointed a new board of directors and moved locations. Bentley Mays recounts that the new board of directors pledged itself to a political program that would build links with the politically active people in the community. However, Mays suggests that the first exhibitions, Second Link: Viewpoints on Video in the Eighties and Production/Reproduction, are focused not on the revolutionary potential of art, but on strengthening avant-garde art-world links and discourse. He concludes by saying that the exhibitions end up being about traditional art galleries.
