Event details
This event is only open to NTU students and staff.
Join us for a guided walkthrough of Donald Rodney's Visceral Canker at Nottingham Contemporary, led by Andy Batson, Head of Marketing and Visitor Experience. This walkthrough will showcase the major retrospective of the late British artist Donald Rodney (b.1961, UK; d.1998, UK).
Bringing together nearly all that survives of his work across painting, drawing, installation, sculpture and digital media with rare archive materials, the exhibition highlights Rodney's significance to the recent history of British art. Though Rodney has had a perennial influence on the wider UK artist community, there have been few opportunities to experience the full breadth and complexity of his work.
This touring exhibition will highlight the significance of Rodney's work and re-address themes of racial identity, chronic illness, Black masculinity and Britain's colonial past.
Timings:
- 1.30 pm meet at Newton, NTU City Campus
- 1.45 pm leave promptly, the group will walk to Nottingham Contemporary together – in the event of poor weather we’ll catch the tram (students to pay their own fare)
- 2 pm guided tour at Nottingham Contemporary commences
