The Andrew Brownsword Gallery at The Edge, University of Bath is pleased to be showing Borderlines, curated by Tessa Giblin, Director of Talbot Rice Gallery, University of Edinburgh.
Borderlines gives form to the conceptual, geo-political, economic and cultural impacts of borders. It draws attention to the ownership of the earth beneath our feet, the UK border in Ireland, tribal territories, anarchic polar exploration and the world-wide distribution of natural resources. Conceived to coincide with the UK’s scheduled exit from the EU, Borderlines offers imaginative ways of representing and thinking about frontiers, at a time when very real borders between the UK and Europe are being proposed.
The exhibition includes works from Lonnie van Brummelen & Siebren de Haan, Willie Doherty, Ruth E Lyons, Amalia Pica, Khvay Samnang, Santiago Sierra, Mona Vatamanu & Florin Tudor.
