Hogarth’s A Rake’s Progress has returned to Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery for the first time in 200 years as the centrepiece of an exhibition that reflects voices and issues in London today.
About
286 years on from Hogarth’s morality tale of the city, a series of contemporary works explores a broader view of society, offering a snapshot of the people and places that give life to the city, from the polarising extreme views expressed on social media and the hub of social interaction in the barber shop to the contesting of outdoor public space.
Hogarth: London Voices, London Lives unites Hogarth's famous 18th-century series of eight paintings with works by contemporary artists to offer a modern reading of the capital and its social challenges through photography, film, sound and performance. The exhibition includes Faisal Abdu’Allah, Ruth Ewan, James Fritz, Oliver Payne & Nick Relph, John Riddy and debbie tucker green, together with the archive from Long Live Southbank.
