Exhibition Review - Group show:'people sometimes, die' Edel Assanti, London till 20th Feb 2016.
With curator Hlebo, incoherence becomes the site of ruptured wounds, stuck in an overwhelmingly white space. - Drenched Co.
Comment: " In this show, exploring mainly the various facets and symptoms of oppression in America, I encountered a bunch of dizzyingly busy young artists, (guns blazing on all media fronts), involved in the art and politics of ‘the post’. It was all a little unavailable but the questions it attempts to ask are compelling - what is your complicity in the oppression of the marginalised? how much has your humanity diminished as you oppress and are oppressed? Great premise for a great show. If only it wasn't trying so hard to be all 'post'. " - JayZee
