"The British Art Show 10, under curator Ekow Eshun, is entitled A Chorus of Strangers and asks 'what forms might empathy or shared imagination take' in turbulent political times."
"Eshun has chosen works by 30 artists such as Alex Margo Arden, Liz Johnson Artur, and Alvaro Barrington, sparking debate online about the artist roster."
"The exhibition aims to provide a vital overview of the most exciting art produced in the UK during the past five years, focusing on contemporary themes."
"Eshun's curatorial vision centers on three themes: 'Moments of Being', inspired by Virginia Woolf, and 'Ways of Living', drawing on the ideas of Stuart Hall."
