Linderism

A career retrospective on a punk collagist who has defied the confines of career.

Published to coincide with the exhibition Linderism at Kettle’s Yard, 15 February – 26 April 2020, the book includes essays from Amy Tobin, James Boaden, Alyce Mahon, and Sarah Victoria Turner. With preface by Andrew Nairne

The essays address Linder’s early photomontages forged in the crucible of punk and postpunk culture in the North-West of England, as well as more recent shifts in her practice encompassing spirituality, the occult and the surreal. Linderism includes extensive documentation of working drawings and research images―the materials that have long formed the basis of her practice―as well as documentation of works included in the survey exhibition.
