Three Models for Change
Curated by Ryan Kearney, Alice O’Rourke, Ariadne Tzika.
In collaboration with the University of Birmingham, Three Models for Change, will take place at Stryx in Minerva Works, Digbeth, June 2018.
Three Models for Change is a group exhibition asserting the importance of historical awareness in establishing future potentials of communities. The works in this exhibition fluctuate between three actual and staged narratives: the formation of a fictional Quaker-punk band; the staging of cross-generational Queer histories; the uncertainty surrounding a newly formed volcanic island and its territorial disputes.
This exhibition includes existing work and new commissions by artists Chris Alton, Ian Giles and Greta Hauer.
Saturday 9 June, 6–9pm
Exhibition continues until 16 June.
