No Colour Bar: Black British Art in Action 1960-1990


No Colour Bar: Black British Art in Action 1960-1990

An exhibition examining Black British cultural identities, heritage and creative voices – and the struggle Black British artists faced to have their voices heard – from the 1960s to the 1990s.

  • 10 July 2015 – 24 January 2016
  • Guildhall Art Gallery, Guildhall Yard, London EC2V 5AE

The focus is on the life works of Eric and Jessica Huntley and the Bogle L’Ouverture Press, a publishing house, bookshop and cultural hub founded in 1969. Bogle L’Ouverture’s bookshop will be physically recreated in the Gallery to provide a multi-sensory, interactive installation alongside works by notable artists of the period, including Eddie Chambers, Errol Lloyd, Denzil Forrester, Sonia Boyce, Keith Piper, and Sokari Douglas-Camp.
