Art Exhibition
Art shows to leave the house for in November 2024
Collectively, this month’s exhibitions delve into themes of identity, resilience and subversion, with a focus on bodily presence and social visibility. They explore how personal and collective narratives can challenge societal norms and remind us of the power of art to reshape representation. Exhibitions like Ten.8 Focus at The Photographer’s Gallery in London and Making A Rukus! at Somerset House revisit transformative periods in Black and queer histories while highlighting enduring legacies.
Other shows, like Lily Bunney’s Girls Peeing on Cars at GUTS Gallery and How to Destroy Angels, a group show at the Horse Hospital, examine radical expressions of intimacy, friendship and subcultural resistance.
