Hew Locke Interview | Ikon Gallery

Hew Locke: Here's the Thing - 8 March - 2 June 2019
This is the most comprehensive exhibition to date of work by British artist Hew Locke. Involving a wide range of media - painting, drawing, photography, sculpture and installation, Locke explores the languages of colonial and post-colonial power, and the symbols through which different cultures assume and assert identity. Fusing historical source material with a keen interest in current affairs, often through the juxtaposition or modification of existing artefacts, Locke focuses attention especially on the UK, the monarchy and his childhood home of the then newly independent Guyana.
