Peter Kennard, Silent Coup
19 May – 1 July 2023
a/political 6 Stannary Street, London SE11 4AA
Opening 19 May 2023, SILENT COUP is a new body of work by @peterkennardx, based on a new book of the same name by investigative journalists Claire Provost and Matt Kennard (@declassifieduk), launching concurrently.
The project marks the father and son duo’s first creative collaboration and sees their response in word and image to complex issues including the unstoppable rise of global corporate power and the political interference of super-corporations in functioning democracies, who dictate how resources are allocated, territories are governed, and justice is defined.
