David Shenton | These Foolish Things

Space Station Sixty-Five are delighted to invite you to the summer exhibition in the AIRLOCK programme: "Shenton's cartoons are often camp but they're not just camp, and they're not that awful apolitical offensive camp, but a light, knowing, meaningful camp; their first task is to entertain and to make the audience laugh - and often they do much more because the liberation politics that informs his work means that with the laugh there is an acerbic point - a wry observation on how we live or a satirical comment about society and a wider political context, contained in the lives and musings of plausible and likeable characters. Or sometimes it's just a silly joke." Graham McKerrow, February 2013

Address : AIRLOCK, Space Station Sixty-Five
