Rochelle School, Arnold Circus, Bethnal Green, E2 7ES
How Much:
Free!
As part of Platforma Festival - a series of events celebrating art by and about refugees - comes Counterpoint, a large group show taking place at Rochelle School in Bethnal Green.
Counterpoint takes its starting point from Edward Said's idea that, on account of their dual (or more) status with respect to culture, nationhood, language, identity and the law, refugees are uniquely placed to put existing systems into question.
With works on show across a host of media, examining ideas around the issues of exile, migration, displacement and identity, this should be a fascinating show.
Until 04.12.11.
