1 Collective history.
6 Cultural movements.
6 Exhibitions.
150 Photographs.
Featuring carefully selected content from the past 15 years of exhibitions, the Red Gallery’s Ourhistory Archives boast exclusive and rarely seen photography of some of Europe's most exciting club cultural movements - from the inception of Tresor and Berlin techno in the 90s, to Parisian ‘French Touch’ and Spain's La Movida Madrileña. For the first time ever these works will be displayed and curated as one whole inter-connected history.
Individually the photographs from each of these movements tell an amazing story of their own, but when these archives are put together these images begin to narrate a whole new collective history. Without negating the role of the DJ, these photographs show the importance of the every-day people that participated in these events at bunkers, factories, rooftops, afterhours and beyond. As a viewer you immediately understand the energy that these photographs capture.
The exhibitions act as a platform to bring together artists, photographers, promoters, adventure-seekers, dreamers and revolutionaries in a collective celebration of music, art and culture.
Tickets to the exhibition can be bought on our Kickstarter page, where essential funds raised will go towards the production of the 6 forthcoming exhibitions. All tickets include one limited edition printed CLUB CULTURES catalogue of your choice. Other special edition items are also available. The exhibitions and crowdfund are proudly supported by Michiko London, Underground, and Jas M.B.
