CODE RED - talk with Peter Kennard, one of Britains foremost political artists

Описание: Peter Kennard has spent over fifty years creating uncompromising and hard-hitting protest art. In CODE RED Kennard re-appropriates the famous photo of the earth taken by the Apollo astronauts in 1972, combining it with images of industrial chimneys, oil refineries exploding, polluted dust, gas masks, parched earth and floods. Kennard’s work makes visible the increasing destruction of the natural world, revealing the destruction not as inevitable but the direct result of human activity.

The exhibition coincides with COP26, the United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Glasgow in November 2021.
