Description

See you at the barricades calls attention to a ‘dissident aesthetic’ emerging in contemporary art. Increasingly, artists are adapting images of 20th-century protest movements, using flags and banners, and re-enacting historical protests.

Featuring coloured posters created by the Guerilla Girls and Redback Graphix to historical videos and elegiac meditations of romantic dissident figures.
