John Hoyland | One Nation Under a Groove | The Bomb Factory

Hales is excited to announce that John Hoyland is currently participating in One Nation Under a Groove at The Bomb Factory, London, UK, through 31 October 2024. 

 

One Nation Under a Groove is an exhibition of sculpture, painting, film, and music celebrating the mixed culture of modern-day Britain. Taking place at the  Marylebone Gallery from 6-31 October, the show will feature the posthumous work of one of the country's leading abstract painters, John Hoyland, alongside the refined and vibrant minimalism of Rana Begum, as well as work from many other eminent and emerging artists. The exhibition will highlight how our diverse backgrounds and shared experiences have contributed to the creation of a dynamic national culture, resulting in something to be both proud of and celebrated.

 

Modern immigration to the UK, from just before the Second World War to the present day, has introduced Britain to new cultural ideas, musical genres, cuisines, fashion, poetry, film, literature, and dance. This diasporic mix has not only enriched but ultimately formed our national culture.

 

One Nation Under A Groove presents the UK in a positive light, emphasising how our differences have made us stronger and more dynamic. It will offer a platform to challenge perceptions, spark dialogue, and provide a space for discussions about our cultural landscape. It offers a timely exploration of British identity, contributing to who we are as a nation and how we can move forward together.
