Private View and Talk | 3–6pm Saturday 21 March 2026

 

ISBN 978-1-913983-97-0 (EVERY WORD UNMADE) is an exhibition in the form of a poem, it is also Banner’s most recent publication. Incorporating works from 1996 to 2026, it embodies a span of time and at the same time it is an anti-chronological, momentary, present-tense reading. Working with a range of media, including drawing, sculpture and performance, Banner attends to the flexibility of language as a means through which to explore conflict and gender. Registering the show as a publication typifies her iconoclastic and playful attitude to publishing.

This is the first in a new series of annual exhibitions entitled Studies at The Common Guild, developed in conjunction with the Roberts Institute of Art.
