“Yet as battered box vans trundle through the city’s centres of finance and commerce, graffiti writers have once again hijacked the circulatory system of the metropolis for their own ends: their cryptic codenames jostling for attention with the signs and signifiers of capital. Marc Vallée’s photographs capture this inadvertent outcome of a shifting interplay of subcultural style and social control.” (From the text accompanying The Graffiti Trucks of London by Dr. Theo Kindynis)

Thursday 5 July 2018, 18.00 - 20.00.

Free event, no booking.
