An exhibition featuring works by pioneering experimental filmmaker Lis Rhodes which have recently been acquired for The Hunterian collection through a Freelands Art Fund Acquisition award. These range from Pictures on Pink Paper from 1982, a feminist exploration of gendered systems of value and power, to more recent works that track the social and political implications of neo-liberalism in the UK and internationally.
The exhibition runs from 12 May–15 October 2023, and was curated by Dominic Paterson.
The exhibition includes a series of photographs by Francis McKee taken at various major protests over the last decade.
Francis McKee has been documenting key protests as part of a wider photographic practice. The photographs are taken within the context of an exploration of the dynamics between photographer, subject, camera and viewer.
