How Much:
Free!
Art with a strong, clear political agenda can go one of two ways - either the communicative power of art is employed for important ends, or the singularity of the message overpowers art's wonderful tendency towards ambiguity. This depends on the artist in question, the work, and the experience of the viewer.
This summer, 198 Gallery presents What Is Crime?, an exhibition that seeks to explore oft-overlooked elements of violence in contemporary society. This is not about obvious things like shootings, stabbings and rape - but rather about social injustice, pollution, discrimination and poverty.
With work on show by the likes of the wondeful Tom Hunter and incomparable Ken Loach, this looks like a fascinating show.
Until 21.08.09.
