Revolting Artists
...is a loose and evolving collective of urban and subversive artists from around the UK, and further-a-field, who produce artwork in a variety of disciplines including graphic design, painting, graffiti, performance poetry, photography and music.
The Revolting Artists are curated, from the knackered coastal town of Weymouth, by local artists Bod and Smithsonian Rösterino; their mission is to create a grass roots art scene whilst shining a spotlight on local and international artists whose work embodies social commentary or has a subversive edge. The new politics of the culture war has spawned a wealth of artists and activists who want to respond to a wide range of subjects from the cost of living crisis to gender politics. Many of these artists use the tools of advertising to reflect satirical and subversive messages back to the consuming masses, blurring and confusing the lines between art and life.
