Wayne Burrows : Behold! The Markets Shall Erase Our History!

16 Jan-4 Mar 2016

Nottingham Contemporary
Nottingham NG1 2GB

Overview

Drawing together strands from a number of ongoing projects, including 723 Variations On The Same Theme, Eastern Bloc Songs and the archives of the fictional British artist Robert Holcombe (1923 –2003), Wayne Burrows presents a display spanning both sides of the Cold War. It takes in typographic consumer propaganda, erased partisan histories, fabricated Independent Group artworks and artefacts from the histories of popular music in Communist Poland, Hungary and Czechoslovakia.
