Stewart Home is an influential contemporary artist, film-maker, writer, art historian, activist and all-round subversive left-wing type.
He's written weird novels, co-founded elaborate conceptual organisations, re-established Gustav Metzger's Art Strike and done a whole host of bizarre online activities. All the while, Home has displayed a keen awareness of art history and a thorough knowledge and understanding of the writings of the likes of Derrida and Foucault. A highly important and influential figure.
