The Feast Wagon

7 Oct 2015-10 Jan 2016

Overview

The Feast Wagon looks at identity and nationhood against a backdrop of today’s globalised contemporary art scene, with its international biennales and large-scale touring exhibitions such as the British Art Show. The exhibition includes new work by Simeon Barclay, Delaine Le Bas, Lubaina Himid and Susan Walsh in response to research by Leeds-based writer Irfan Shah. In a series of new commissions, the artists explore ideas of cultural exchange and possibilities for personal or collective reinvention through sculptural installations, performances and text works.
