The subject or theme of \u2018prison\u2019 is as broad and open to interpretation as the colour of the sky, that square patch of blue through the bars in a cartoon illustration. For those with direct experience of prison (and their families) it is a harsh reality. Prison attempted to deal with art and artefacts where the concept and reality coincided. The exhibition Prison was concerned primarily with its representation \u2013 the prisoners, the architecture, the reality, the concept and society\u2019s relationship to it. From those unsubtle cartoons with the shorthand of bars, through the Monopoly \u2018Get Out of Jail\u2019 card, to a film made by inmates of a Sao Paulo prison which subsequently had to be pulled down. The subject is so vast that the exhibition did not even try to address everything, rather it focused on artists, both inside and out, that attempt to make work that is relevant and revealing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;773&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;772&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_separator][vc_column_text]<strong>Artists:<\/strong> Soudabeh Ardavan, Matthew Barney, Jonathan Bayer, Lucinda Devlin, Rita Donagh, Nicole Eisenman, Harun Farocki, Jean Genet, Robert Gober, Grennan and Sperandio, Thomas Kilpper, Koestler Trust, Langlands and Bell, Beltran Obregon, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Prisons Foundation, Mark Raidpere, Gary Rough, Paulo Sacramento, The Simpsons, Poppy de Villeneuve, Jane and Louise Wilson, and Artur Zmijewski[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<strong>Curators:<\/strong><br \/>\nSacha Craddock<br \/>\nStephen Hepworth<br \/>\nGraham Gussin[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Exhibition Dates: 31 March \u2013 12 May 2007 Showcasing a diverse group of international artists working across a wide range of media, Prison included both historical and contemporary representations of prison drawn from the visual arts and popular culture.
