Overview

For his first solo show in London Sheffield-based artist, performer and writer Tim Etchells presents for the first time in the UK, 'Art Flavours', commissioned for Manifesta 7 in 2008. The project involves the creation of new ice cream flavours, inspired by contemporary art: the body, memory, the spectacle and the archive. Developed through a series of meetings with a local ice-cream maker and an art writer, 'Art Flavours' is an encounter between popular confectionary and art practice, playing with the possibility of translating languages and ideas.
