The catalogue for exhibition Eyes For Blowing Up Bridges: Joining The Dots From The Situationist International To Malcolm McLaren is published on Friday (November 13).

With a specially-commissioned memoir of McLaren by his art-school friend Fred Vermorel, the 100-page catalogue contains an introduction by me, a foreword by John Hansard Gallery’s Ros Carter and Stephen Foster and an essay by co-curator David Thorp.
