Genuinely touched by this. I'll add though that art is the product of time & place so, similarly, I consider this award reflective of the excellent colleagues & students I am lucky to work with. The whole School makes working life lots of fun ❀️ @uniofstandrews.bsky.social @arthistorysta.bsky.social

"Puppets on a Kremlin String?" - Marsh Family adaptation of Coldplay's "Viva la Vida" on Trump/Vance

Here's a 🎢 twist on Coldplay's thumping #VivaLaVida we're calling "Puppets on a Kremlin String?"

It reflects on the grotesque media spectacle hosted by #Trump & #Vance yesterday at the White House. In solidarity with Zelensky & Ukraine.

As an introduction one of my research interests is 20th century women photographers in Scotland. In 2024 as part of Glasgow International with Craigmillar Now, I curated an exhibition of Sandra George’s (1957-2013) work. Sandra was a Black photographer, artist and community worker in Edinburgh.

Photos of two black & white posters from the original Edinburgh Women’s Committee Zero Tolerance campaign. First poster shows a comfortable living room, a white woman sitting on the floor reading a magazine, accompanied by words: She lives with a successful businessman, loving father and respected member of the community. Last we he hospitalised her.” with the distinctive white Z on a black background of the Zero Tolerance campaign. The other poster shows a group of young women of mixed ethnicity in a relaxed group environment. Text reads: when they say no they mean no. Some men don’t listen.’ Again accompanied by the white Z.
