Monument to a Fishmonger : SAM CURTIS
23 Jun-9 Jul 2016
Division of Labour
Salford M3 2LE

Curtis' "Monument to a Fishmonger", 2015, turns traditional hierarchies of art on its head. Using a genre usually reserved for the famous and powerful, he creates a memorial to an everyday worker of his profession - still alive and still working hard. text by Daniel F.
