Entangled Pasts, 1768–now: Art, Colonialism and Change, at the Royal Academy of Arts
DACS licensed the work of Sonia Boyce and Frank Bowling, for the exhibition catalogue of the show ‘Entangled Pasts, 1768–now: Art, Colonialism and Change’, at the Royal Academy of Arts.
The show exhibits over 100 major contemporary and historical works as part of a conversation about art and its role in shaping narratives of empire, enslavement, resistance, abolition and colonialism – and how it may help set a course for the future. Informed by the RA’s ongoing research of its colonial past, this exhibition engages around 50 artists connected to the institution to explore themes of migration, exchange, artistic traditions, identity and belonging.
You can view the exhibition until 28 April 2024.
What is Truth? at the Sainsbury Centre
DACS worked with the Sainsbury Centre to license the work of our members Silvia Rosi and Maud Saulter to be part of the catalogue spanning three different exhibitions under the umbrella theme of ‘What is Truth?’, discussing topics of Artificial Intelligence and increasing concerns on how information is generated and circulated.
