Generally, ThreeThousand doesn’t like to dabble in politics. We are both too stupid and too good-looking to genuinely care. Fortunately, not everyone is like us, and for those with a social conscience ACCA have created a new exhibition, ‘The Unquiet World’, that not only conveys a powerful message but also supports independent artists and free thinkers.
On May the 27th 2006, the gallery called an exhibition of international and local artists to reflect upon current and past disasters from trouble spots all over the earth. They resolved then, and are still resolved today, to confront a range of pressing contemporary issues. From the bizarre dementia of those caught up in the Jerusalem syndrome, to messages about the perils of everyday life in Iraq ‘The Unquiet World’ might just make you shut up and think for a while.
