Bureau of Silly Ideas

The Bureau of Silly Ideas Ltd. (BOSI) is a not-for-profit conceptual art organisation that produces shows and interactive installations; operating predominantly in public spaces. Initially founded in October 2002 by Roger Hartley and Claire Horan, registered at Companies House. In 2016 they further expanded to become a CIC Trust Organisation. The Bureau of Silly Ideas is funded by Arts Council England and headquartered in Brixton, London.

The majority of their work is in collaboration with local government councils across the United Kingdom, in addition to commissions from a variety of heritage sites and festivals across the world. They are also members of National Association of Street Artists and the Independent Street Arts Network. They were the first company to combine circus performance under the veil of construction work - transforming everyday objects into unassuming props or using radio controlled robotics.
