Exhibition: No Borders at the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery
Opening times
Exhibition Date - 15/12/2012 to 02/06/2013
No Borders is a major exhibition of international contemporary art featuring artists from the Middle East, Asia and Africa.
The exhibition reflects upon the globalised conditions of the world today and the histories and contexts that inform current art practices.
No Borders presents the monumental Ton of Tea by globally-renowned Ai Weiwei, photographic portraits of sugar-cane cutters by Zwelethu Mthethwa and a video meditation on the Partition of India by Amar Kanwar.
A total of fourteen artists explore globalisation, histories, migration, the city and conflict. The work is powerful, poetic and challenging. No Borders locates Bristol as a point of connection in a dynamic and rapidly changing web of global relations, mobility and exchange.
This exhibition is part of the Global to Local series of exhibitions, 2012-14. Global to Local presents the new collection of international contemporary art developed by Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in partnership with Arnolfini presented by the Art Fund.
Admission Free. Recommended donation £2.
