"Look Both
Ways" exhibition
7th April – 5th May 2006
Kofi Allen, Godfried Donkor, Mary Evans & Errol Francis
Four artists look at issues of memory and reinvention in a
post-colonial era.
The work exhibited presents a counter-history that looks at
how Britain is facing and can continue to face its suppressed
colonial history.
Their work takes its inspiration from the eighteenth century
architecture of the Stephen Lawrence Gallery in order to look
back whilst also looking forward for the purpose of moving
forward to the future ahead.
 |
Kofi Allen presents work
that draws together a cyber-chic façade and the iconography
of the traditional Ghanaian Adinkra symbol.
Godfried Donkor’s latest work, Jamestown Masquerade, looks
at the cultural interplay between Europe and West Africa,
which disarms the Western stereotyped image of African
culture.
Mary Evans looks at how the social, cultural and political
dynamics of modern Britain are in many ways the legacy
of the country’s imperial past.
Errol Francis unites a diverse cast and crew in order
to highlight the separation and the sanitisation that
can take place when our past is interpreted through our
tourist industry. |
