Overview
Teststrip was an influential artist-run space (1992-1997)
founded by a group of Auckland artists, including Giovanni Intra.
Originally located in Vulcan Lane, the collective moved to
Karangahape Rd in 1994. With funding from Creative New Zealand the
group upgraded the two-gallery space, formalised their publication
series, the Teststrip micrographs, and broadened the kinds of
projects they undertook, in particular working with Australian
artists and curators and holding a series of shows by Los Angeles
artists.
