Subterraneans

Subterraneans is an exhibition which explores how aspects of Beat culture have influenced  visual art and design and includes work by established artists and young unknowns, recent graduates and the long dead, artists and designers who have all in some way come under the spell or influence of those paths first laid out in the 1940’s and 1950’s.

This prestigious exhibition includes the work of many well-known artists and designers and also has a piece of work made by a current BA (Hons) Photography student, Florence Brewin. Florence made the piece in response to the level 5 module 'Photography As Representation' and will tour with the exhibition.
