The Art of UK Reggae

The Art of UK Reggae

7th May – 14th May 2022

 

The Art of UK Reggae is a ground breaking exhibition of Reggae poster art

Visitors will learn about London’s thriving reggae culture in the 1990s; through the evocative collection of posters and flyers on display featuring British and International reggae icons from the golden age of reggae such as Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Burning Spear, U-Roy, Jah Shaka, Big Youth and Gregory Isaacs, as well as a unique collaboration with Denzel Forrester MBE, one of the UK’s most celebrated Black visual artists.

The exhibition showcases the work of Dub Plate Grafix (DPG), a pioneering graphic design outfit, who honed their creative skills in Bristol’s booming graffiti and music scene in the 1980s.

Don’t miss this opportunity to view the designs that lit the fuse for UK reggae and dub culture.
