Description
The ‘Skullduggerous’ group show features artworks inspired by the corporate crime and corporate skullduggery behind the world’s worst industrial disaster – the 1984 Union Carbide gas leak in Bhopal, India.
Contributing artists include:
• Slinkachu
• Simon Periton
• Swoon
• Georgie Hopton
• China Mike
• Andrew McAttee
• James Bates
• Kid Acne
• Vesna Parchet
• Pure Evil
Plus, many other contemporary, radical, and urban artists from both the UK and abroad. with contributions still coming in, we expect to feature the work of between 50- 60 artists. All artworks have been donated and sale proceeds will go to The Bhopal Medical Appeal.
The story of the Bhopal gas leak is one of ongoing human tragedy and environmental disaster. Over 20,000 lives have been lost, and the suffering continues today. While Dow Chemical argues its responsibility, the abandoned pesticide plant is allowed to continue to leach toxic chemicals into the water supply and poison new generations.
The Bhopal Medical Appeal is a UK charity that funds a clinic in Bhopal to provide free treatment for suffers of the 1984 gas leak disaster and the present day water poisoning. To find out more go to: Exhibition Previews http://artforbhopal.tumblr.com
