Graham Dolphin

2 Jul-22 Oct 2016

Overview

Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art (NGCA) present a major survey of works by Graham Dolphin. Encompassing drawing, sculpture, sound and video the exhibition will include works drawn from private collections alongside new pieces created specifically for the NGCA. Over the last 15 years Dolphin has developed an extensive body of work exploring issues of fandom and idolatry, often with a meticulous and highly crafted approach to making. A graffiti-strewn door, lyrics carved into a vinyl record, a heavily worn bench carved with messages to a recently departed rock star, Dolphin offers sacred sites for a secular age.
