A major new exhibition celebrating the past 50 years of Black creativity in Britain and beyond. 

 

Beginning with the radical Black filmmaker Horace Ové and his dynamic circle of Windrush generation creative peers and extending to today’s brilliant young Black talent globally, a group of 110 interdisciplinary artists are showcasing their work together for the first time, exploring Black experience and influence, from the post-war era to the present day.

 

The exhibition is co-curated by Zak Ové with Ceri Hand.
