Playing with Power
‘The proletarian revolution is that critique of human geography through which individuals and communities will begin constructing places and events suitable for the re-appropriation not only of their labour, but also of their total history. By virtue of the resulting mobile spaces of play, and by virtue of freely chosen variations in the rules of the game, the autonomy of place and the authenticity of life will be discovered.’ – Guy Debord, The Society of the Spectacle.
Class Wargames is showing its double size metal version of Guy Debord’s The Game of War in the Play Power exhibition alongside ludic artworks by Eileen Agar, John Armstrong, André Breton, Lygia Clark, Sir John Lavery and Leo Robinson.
