Jake Chapman – HINTERGRUND

Turntable Gallery is delighted to announce brand new work by one of Britain’s most exciting contemporary artists: Jake Chapman. Marking his debut to Grimsby; HINTERGRUND will showcase Chapman’s unrelenting, uncompromising sense of decadent grotesquerie, humorous malice and flamboyant depravity.

HINTERGRUND presents Chapman’s working on George Grosz’ body of satirical prints. Each one painstakingly altered to become a deviation upon the deviant, a beautiful corpse, separated by a near century of politically dismantled altruism. The parallels between the populism of the contemporary right and the rise of its Germano-nationalist twin makes this collection even more vital.
