MK Gallery’s current exhibitor, artist Olivia Plender, returns to Milton Keynes on Saturday 9 June, to discuss her work and exhibition with Robert Leckie, Exhibitions Curator at Gasworks.

 

Plender's exhibition explores how attitudes towards mass education have evolved over time, and includes a replica TV studio from the 1970s and a Google style workplace.

 

Robert Leckie is currently exhibitions curator at Gasworks. He studied Performance and Visual Arts at the University of Brighton and Curating Contemporary Art at the Royal College of Art, London. He has recently (co-) curated the following exhibitions and events: Human Capital at Virreina Centre de la Imatge, Barcelona (2012), Eric Baudelaire's solo exhibition The Anabasis of May and Fusako Shigenobu and 27 Years Without Images (2012) and All I Can See is the Management (2011), both at Gasworks.
