Descrição: Goldsmiths CCA, London, 7 October to 14 January This exhibition takes its name from the date of the murder of George Floyd in 2020, and the works - mostly large-scale canvases which pertain, directly or indirectly, to the turbulent wake of the AfricanAmerican man's death - are similarly titled after dates. The exhibition lends historical gravitas to the recent and the continuing issues of the present, and to the necessary renewal of protest against these grievances, and the continuing, but no less significant ways in which these histories are tidied away. Principled vandalism's material fugitivity - speed of execution enabled by the spray can, speed of removal ensured by the state - makes it an aptly ghost-ridden art form.
