Mash Ups




16 July - 19 September 2008
Post pop fragments and détournements
Curated by Stuart Semple

The Kowalsky Gallery is proud to present Mash Ups, an exhibition curated by British artist Stuart Semple, who will tackle the concept of appropriation and the re-articulation of mass culture in his first curated group show in London.

Featuring 5 of the UK's most fascinating young artists, this show is more than just a bright and glossy homage to pop, but an interesting insight into how a new generation make sense of the complexities of mass culture.
