London: 1968
Tate Britain, London
TUCKED away in a side room adjacent to the Tate Britain gallery where the paintings of the early 20th century anti-war artist Mark Gertler are displayed — always worth a viewing — is an interesting exhibition of artworks, political ephemera, manifestos and posters that take us back to 1968.
It's an eclectic mix, with a wall of sculptural pieces including artworks from the 1969 ICA exhibition When Attitudes Become Form.
