2008 – Pride

Pride (Castlefield Gallery)

2008
Installation
Brass 17 x 25 cm

A plaque at the entrance of the show announces the “pride of the artist supporting Castlefield Gallery”. These kind of plaques are usually displayed in the rooms of museums whose content or maintenance has been funded by the generosity of a donor. The phrase belongs to an economic relationship alien to the current status of the art world and suggests a type of social structure that inspires reflection upon the conditions of contemporary art.
