New Order: Art, Product, Image 1976 - 1995
Spr眉th Magers is pleased to present New Order: Art, Product, Image 1976 - 1995, a group exhibition selected by Michael Bracewell that surveys identity and image in British art, culture and society between 1976 and 1995. The exhibition originates from a discussion about the cultural status and art historical positioning of one of Peter Saville鈥檚 best-known works for Factory Records made in the early 1980s and blurring the boundaries between art, design, pop and product.
Moving from Richard Hamilton鈥檚 pioneering interpretation of image, technology and process and commodity to Saville鈥檚 design for New Order鈥檚 seminal record, Blue Monday, via portraits of British society by Karen Knorr and Olivier Richon, and finally early videos by what came to be termed the Young British Artists, the exhibition considers a period that covers the twilight of the pre-digital, modernist city and the dawn of the postmodern computer age.
