THATCHERISM MEETS SOCIAL HOUSING
A three-dimensional poster I made as part of a series of three dioramas on display at the Museum of Homelessness show CRIMINAL, which runs until the end of October. The streets are in reverse perspective. The show also features work…
NEW SHOW AT THE MUSEUM OF HOMELESSNESS
For the last month or two I’ve been working on some new work for this group show at the fantastic Museum of Homelessness, opening on the 21st May. It’s free and open for 10 weeks! Here’s the details: “A historical exhibition exploring 400 years of criminalisation of homelessness featuring new work from 10Foot, Gemma Lees, Matt Bonner, Spelling Mistakes Cost Lives, and Surfing Sofas. The exhibition, staged in an English perennial meadow at the museum’s site in Finsbury Park, will show that how we think about homelessness today comes from ideas that were created long ago. When people talk about the criminalisation of homelessness, it’s usually the Vagrancy Act of 1824 that is the focus. But there is much more to this story.

MUSEUM OF NEOLIBERALISM
Some photos from the Museum of Neoliberalism I co-curated with Gavin Grindon and which opened for 4 days in Brighton at The World Transformed. Now we’re raising funds to open it semi-permanently in London in November. There’s a bunch of great and awful rewards for backers on the crowdfunding page. All the objects in the photos below are actually real I’m afraid, not satire. You can see more photos of the first exhibition at www.museumofneoliberalism.com
MUSEUM OF NEOLIBERALISM
This weekend is the launch of a Museum of Neoliberalism I’ve co-curated with Gavin Grindon, at The World Transformed 2019 festival in Brighton. Tickets are still available, but if you can’t make it I’ll be posting photos next week. We also hope to show it elsewhere, including at WAR Gallery, and have been thinking about it as a starting point, and a sort of prototype for, The Thatcher Museum I was banging on about a few years ago. I’ll also be talking at the ‘Subvertising Symposium’ at The World Transformed on Sunday alongside Ad Block Bristol, Matt Bonner, Michelle Tylicki and Dog Section Press.
