The Dairy Art Centre is celebrating its opening with a tribute to the Swiss artists John Armleder, staging the largest ever solo exhibition in the UK.
The show was inspired by the presence of many of the artist's works in the collections of Nicolai Frahm and Frank Cohen, and, using them as a starting point, develops multiple dimensions of Armleder's art through his own intervention in both planning and installing the exhibition route.
John Armleder has been a key figure on the contemporary art scene since the early 1970s and, despite the fact that critics, younger artists and the market have widely acknowledged his influence, he remains a difficult figure to define or classify within a movement.
