Urban Frame: Mutiny in Colour
Running across three locations - The National Horseracing Museum in Newmarket, Moyse’s Hall Museum in Bury St Edmunds and Haverhill Arts Centre - the exhibition Mutiny in Colour has 300 works from a single street art collection. It encompasses some of the world’s most renowned street artists and contemporary artists including: Banksy, Blek le Rat, Pure Evil, Grayson Perry, My Dog Sighs, KAWS, the Connor Brothers, Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Sherlock, Swoon, Ben Eine, Bambi, Hush and Lamont White, to name a few.
The exhibiton in Newmarket also plays host to mural-sized photographic images of Banksy's latest works created in Ukraine during the last twelve months of conflict. Many of these orignals do not exist anymore, destroyed by the invading Russian forces as they have attacked civilian infrastructure. All of Banksy's images honour the Ukranian people facing down their Russian agressors. See below:
