About
Group show organised in collaboration with Andrew Cross.Andrew Cross, Roger Dean, Jonathan Gent, Merlin James, Peter Kinley, Bob Law, George Shaw, Mark Wallinger.
A Bucolic Frolic: Distractions from the Modern takes a look at tendencies to be found in English art, design, music and political activism from 1960s to the present day that indicate a particular refusal to accept an inevitable thrust of economic and technological modernity, prefering instead visions of alternative worlds and reinterpretations of the existing one. The exhibition groups together painting, photography, graphic design, architectural propositions and material related to the music and politics of the outdoor free festival movement.
