Скачать или смотреть ART! on the Underground!

This week's text is about all the art on the Underground, London's public transport network. A kind of love letter to it all, but also thinking about art's role in public life!

Israel continues to commit horrific acts of violence and genocide against the Palestinian people, Gaza is still under blockade and potentially facing a ground invasion. Please email ur MP, if you haven't already, and ask them to call for a ceasefire & to stop the war in Gaza. (https://palestinecampaign.eaction.onl...)








ALSO! on the subject of art x public transport: Banner Repeater (https://www.bannerrepeater.org/) is an artist-led contemporary art space & artists' publishing archive, they're based on platform 1 at Hackney Downs station -- at the moment they're doing some fundraising to cover running costs & repairs. You can buy an artist print, here's one of mine actually from back when i was an artist!!! (https://www.bannerrepeater.org/zarina...) -- very limited edition and rare! because the un-Publish project I did with them was my last project as an artist! If that's not ur bag, there are other prints available on their online shop. (https://www.bannerrepeater.org/banner...) And if you'd rather just sling over a cute fiver and call it a day, they're taking donations on Open Collective (https://opencollective.com/bannerrepe...) . B/R are a non-profit and do some really cool work, & small orgs do not receive nearly as much public funding as they should! so *thank you* in advance for helping to support artist-led publishing!








Finally, *thank you to Jessica Vaughan from Art on the Underground (https://art.tfl.gov.uk/) for taking the time to speak to me -- our interview was the basis for this text.* If you've never noticed the art on the underground -- AotU have got an ART MAP!!! (https://art.tfl.gov.uk/projects/art-map/) , but you can also have a look through their project archive. (https://art.tfl.gov.uk/projects/)
