London’s DKUK Salon are putting on “Work” and other works by Ian Breakwell opening February 17 and running April 19.
Artist Daniel Kelly, who runs the Peckham hair dressing art space, has selected and curated a small selection of Breakwell’s work, such as ‘Continuous Diary’ (1984) and ‘Dialogues’ (1981), which will play softly to people through a directional speaker during the shampooing part of the appointment – after the initial hair consultation.
Much of Breakwell’s work was developed from diaries. Combined with the specific context of DKUK Salon the show looks to be a warm and intimate one, faithful to the work of the late artist.
