-LIVING CITIES - Since the nineteenth century, the city has been a rich source of inspiration for artists, providing a subject matter that reflects the attractions, realities and complexities of urban life. The artworks here date from the 1970s right up to the present day, commenting in various ways on the cities in which the artists themselves have lived and worked.

-TRACE EMIN’S work has an immediacy and often sexually provocative attitude that firmly locates her oeuvre within the tradition of feminist discourse.  By re-appropriating conventional handicraft techniques – or ‘women’s work’ – for radical intentions, Emin’s work resonates with the feminist tenets of the ‘personal as political’.  In Everyone I’ve Ever Slept With, Emin used the process of appliqué to inscribe the names of lovers, friends and family within a small tent, into which the viewer had to crawl inside, becoming both voyeur and confidante.  Her interest in the work of Edvard Munch and Egon Schiele particularly inform Emin’s paintings, monoprints and drawings, which explore complex personal states and ideas of self-representation through manifestly expressionist styles and themes.

IGHTHAM MOTE / NATIONAL TRUST

The Pharcyde (pronounced "far side") is an American alternative hip hop group, formed in 1989, from South Central Los Angeles. The group is perhaps best known for the hit singles "Drop", "Passin' Me By" and "Runnin'", as well as their first album, Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde (1992). The group continues to tour and record, both collaboratively and in solo projects.

Room One :

The ceiling-mounted sculpture FLOOR 2015 was initially conceived to be shown on the ground, as its title suggests. Holzer often reworks her art to respond to its setting. She explores how the impact of her texts changes when presented in new materials and when seen from different vantage points. Customised programming renders Holzer’s Truisms, Inflammatory Essays, Living, Survival, Mother and Child, and Arno in an array of colours and effects meant to prompt a range of thoughts and moods. 

Room Four : 

Blue Purple Tilt 2007 includes a survey of Holzer's writings, from the early Truisms and Inflammatory Essays through to Arno and Blue, done in the late 1990s. Holzer became interested in more sculptural LED presentations and so propped the electronic displays against the wall.

A great feature of the electronic signs is their capacity to move content. I love that because motion is much like the spoken word: you can emphasize phrases; you can roll and pause, the kinetic equivalent to inflection ... I write my text by saying the words out loud, or I write and then say words, to test them. Having text move is an extension of that process.
