This exhibition by Andy Holden & The Grubby Mitts is a concept album in expanded form. The suite of ten songs around which the exhibition is structured were recorded between 2016 and 2024 by Holden and his band in their studio in Bedford, U.K, in an attempt to capture a time when the political and personal were becoming increasingly intertwined. Each track sits under the umbrella of the album’s title Love in the Misanthropocene, with ‘Misanthropocene’ as a portmanteau combining ‘misanthrope' and ‘Anthropocene'.
A private view will take place at the gallery on September 18th.
