See You at the Barricades
註釋"Drawing on the Art Gallery of NSW collection, this exhibition explores the complex relationship between protest and art. 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. The imagery on display here is wide-ranging, from brightly coloured posters created by the Guerilla Girls and Redback Graphix to historical videos and elegiac meditations of romantic dissident figures. Through the prism of the Gallery's collection, this exhibition asks whether contemporary art remains in itself a form of dissent or whether it's become a form of nostalgia that valorises the past."--Publisher description.
