Peter Liversidge show at Whitechapel gallery, London UK, 17 Mar 2015

The Whitechapel Gallery is showing a display of ‘playful’ protest banners by British artist Peter Liversidge, who worked with groups of primary school children from east London. Liversidge worked with the children to write lyrics for protest songs, create choreography and design banners and placards to enable them to express their views on community and the power of a collective voice. The banners cover everything from ‘no more homework’, to ‘Give money to the poor’ and a reminder to ‘smile!’. Both shows run 17 March – 14 June 2015.
