The Unexpected End of the Misfit by Nathan James
*post pop fragments and detournements
The Kowalsky Gallery is proud to present MASHUPS, an exhibition curated by British artist Stuart Semple, who will tackle the concept of appropriation and the re-articulation of mass culture in his first curated group show in London.
Featuring 5 of the UK’s most fascinating young artists, this show is more than just a bright and glossy homage to pop, but an interesting insight into how a new generation make sense of the complexities of mass culture. Fittingly the private view will also feature a live performance and interactive music video shoot by Top 20 band, Subliminal Girls.
