Sandy Baldwin and his students have done a number of political works in WOW, and if you count Second Life as a video game space (I don't, but others sometimes do) - there are dozens of exhibitions there constantly - check out the Odyssey Sim for one site -

ISTR that Joseph DeLappe did performances of scripts from the TV series
"Friends" in a Halo or some other online first-person shooter. The
script-readers were repeatedly killed by marauding gamers, of course, but
kept returning until the script was finished. I think there are a number of
artists who have done similarly disruptive actions within online worlds. 
I've also seen interviews of artists and other cultural producers conducted
in online first-person shooters, can't remember who was doing that
regularly. The idea was for the interviewer to defend the person being
interviewed or take them to safety while also conducting the interview.

      Thanks John and Marc!

      I actually discovered Netbehaviour through Ada, but I have yet
      to contribute to their discussion.

      I had a look at Byob and I'm trying to get in contact with the
      previous organizers who hosted an event here two years ago.

      as for my own art I've opened up a vimeo account -
      https://vimeo.com/124372016

      I was curious if anyone here has heard of an art exhibition held
      within a video game space? has it happened before, or if it were
      to happen, how might that affect the art?

      Mayke.
