Where The People Will Go
15 July - 11 September, 2011
Where the People Will Go brings together new and existing works by Tue Greenfort responding to the SLG’s history and architecture, its changing role within its local context and its relationship with neighbouring Sceaux Gardens housing estate.
The exhibition builds on the artist’s work over the past ten years, as well as ideas he began to explore when he made a site-specific work for the 2009 group show at the SLG, Beyond These Walls. Greenfort created a direct access route from the estate to the gallery, shifting the physical relationship between the two locations. Here the artist opens up that entrance again as just one element of many within a complex installation which explores a range of themes related to ideas around environmentalism, The Commons and political ecology, with specific reference to the SLG’s history and location.
