Fort III is now finished and ready to be editioned. It has been done especially for the Back from the Front exhibition at the Royal West of England Academy in Bristol.I have been invited to exhibit alongside some other fascinating and interesting artists.
Back from the Front - Art, Memory and the Aftermath of War is
a programme of exhibitions and events at the RWA commemorating the
start of The Great War, and 75th anniversary of the start of the Second
World War.
"Alongside these powerful evocations of war and peace, a number of
artists have created work in response to war: Michael Sandle RA and Emma
Stibbon RWA RA react to monumental sculptures across Europe; the late
Richard Hamilton’s ‘Medal of dishonour’ offers a searing critique of
political subterfuge; Ian Chamberlain reflects on the industrial
technologies of conflict; Lucy Willis RWA responds to the plight of the
dispossessed, while Paul Gough RWA draws on the emblematic power of
civic statuary to explore how memory is shaped and controlled in our
over-crowded urban spaces".
