Inspired by his three-part documentary Grayson Perry’s Big American Roadtrip, broadcast on Channel 4 in September, in which the artist travels across the US on a custom-built motorbike he designed especially for the journey, these new works explore some of the biggest cultural and political fault-lines in the country. Works respond to the programme’s themes and conversations as Perry spent time with different communities, from African-American businesspeople in Atlanta to farmers in Wisconsin, to understand how Americans today view issues of identity, race, money and class – and what might be done to overcome the divisions in their country (and in our own).
The exhibition is available to view by free timed ticket. Book your visit here. It is also available to view via the App Store on Vortic Collect.
Grayson Perry’s Big American Road Trip begins on Channel 4 on 23 September.
