"The original documentary on queercore. At just twenty minutes, it's a short blast of firsthand documentation of the queercore scene in the 1990s….as much an artifact of the scene as it is a document of it" – How to Punk a Revolution: An Oral History (2021, PM Press)
"…queer iconoclasts and renegades, the marriage of punk philosophy with activism. Positive aggression, action, sound and image." – MIX festival, 1997

A Garden Manifesto Edited by Olivia Laing and Richard Porter
❀What do gardens mean and how can they change the world? A Garden Manifesto gathers radical visions rooted in the earth from artists, writers, gardeners and activists, among them Lubaina Himid, Derek Jarman, Jamaica Kincaid, Ana Mendieta, Dan Pearson and Wolfgang Tillmans. It’s a seed box for an uncertain future, packed with anarchic dreams of Eden-making and humming with resistance to the colonial project of homogenisation and destruction. ❀ Featuring

"Friends for many years, Kley and Treleaven share a fascination for epochs and historical communities that have regarded beauty and decoration as vital components of human flourishing and social reform. The exhibition features five of Kley’s signature black and white ceramic vessels, alongside a new body of works on paper by Treleaven, created in tandem with his ongoing ‘new pagan paintings’ series..."

'This is the Salivation Army' (1996-1999) included in Copy Machine Manifestos at the Brooklyn Museum: "Copy Machine Manifestos: Artists Who Make Zines is the first exhibition dedicated to the rich history of five decades of artists’ zines produced in North America. Since the 1970s, zines—short for “fanzines,” magazines, or self-published booklets of texts and images, usually made with a copy machine—have given a voice and visibility to many operating outside of mainstream culture. Artists have harnessed the medium’s essential role in communication and community building and used it to transform material and conceptual approaches to art making across all media. This canon-expanding exhibition documents zines’ relationship to various subcultures and avant-garde practices, from punk and street culture to conceptual, queer, and feminist art. It also examines zines’ intersections with other mediums, including collage, craft, film, drawing, painting, performance, photography, sculpture, and video. Featuring over one thousand zines and artworks by over one hundred artists, Copy Machine Manifestos demonstrates the importance of zines to artistic production and its reception across North America...The exhibition is accompanied by the first comprehensive publication to explore artists’ zines, co-published with Phaidon Press, and including over 800 images of zines and works in other media alongside texts by the curators and specially commissioned essays...as well as an extensive section featuring biographies of all the artists represented in the project."
