description:
Mike Dawson has covered the imposing columns which flank the entrance to the Cornerhouse Gallery and Cinemas with mock brick wall paper. Working within his chosen mileau - namely the relationship between the real and the fake, Dawsons columns both blend in with the red brick architecture that dominates Manchester City Centre as well as being an accute, and somewhat phallic, affront to the entrance of one of Manchester's leading contemporary art spaces. Dawson will discussing this and other work with Artranspennine curator Ian Rawlinson at the Cornerhouse Gallery 17th July 2003 - 6pm -8pm.
