oldschoolinformation

Managed to see the show at Raven Row - http://www.ravenrow.org/current/ – most excellent – looking at the work of KP Brehmer who found new ways to visualise global capitalism which are of increasing relevance today – an agent of social and political change the show explores ways of communicating data in indirect ways rather than an ‘information is beautiful’ way. As ever the space is the star and the incredibly detailed and professionally produced printed matter. Rise of the planet of the apes – is just that with guns and apes on horseback – it all felt a little unnecessary.
