A catalogue of our first exhibition in
Brixton Art Gallery in 1986. There is a long article that precedes the artists pages, put together by
Stefan Szczelkun, that documents the critical discursive formation of the group. Some Polish artists in London decide not to be part of the group and give their reasons. I think that the issue was an ambivalence about 'national identity' as being tainted by nationalism etc, whereas I took care that the group was 'progressive' in direction.
