Parades & Processions: Here comes everybody

Exhibition at Parasol Unit, Foundation for contemporary Arts "The exhibition features works by twelve UK-based and international artists who take their inspiration from the traditional meanings of ‘parades’ and ‘processions’, creating works that epitomise the social and political context of our time."

Okay epitomise is a strong word for this exhibition. Though I post to give credit to concepts of interrelationships and community my comment in the exhibition book read: 'Less irony, more participation'.... somehow notions of community get put aside for a cult of artistic statement, but alas the finer of the arts....
