About
Gee Vaucher (1945) is an internationally renowned political artist living near Epping, Essex. She is best known for her ‘radical creativity’, montages and iconic artwork for the infamous anarcho-pacifist band Crass. Employing an eclectic range of styles and techniques, coupled with an essentially DIY aesthetic, she creates powerful images exploring political, cultural and personal issues. She sees her work as a tool for social change.
This retrospective survey of Vaucher's work is her premier in the UK, bringing together for the first time a comprehensive collection of her paintings, collages, prints, photographs, videos and sculptures as well as installation work and rare archive material.
