Recent work has focussed on the designs of 19th Century English interior designer, writer and socialist William Morris. Mabb\u2019s interest in Morris stems from the social and political connotations of Morris\u2019 work, the continued relevancy of Morris\u2019 politics and the continuing market for Morris\u2019 designs. Mabb\u2019s interpretations or reconfigurations of Morris\u2019 designs consider the relationship between Morris\u2019 own thinking and other forms of cultural production.<\/p>\n<p>David Mabb\u2019s work has been exhibited at the William Morris Gallery, London (2015); Focal Point Gallery, Southend on Sea (2014); Delaware Centre for the Contemporary Arts, Wilmington (2010); The Bluecoat, Liverpool (2009); Contemporary Art Centre, Vilnius (2006); Art Gallery of Windsor, Ontario (2003) and Oakville Galleries, Ontario (2000). He curated Utopia Ltd. (with Mary-Ruth Walsh) at Wexford Art Centre and the Highlanes Gallery, Drogheda, Ireland (2011) and William Morris \u201cMinistering to the Swinish Luxury of the Rich\u201d at the Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester (2004).<\/p>\n<p>He is Reader in Art and Programme Leader (studio practice) MFA Fine Art at Goldsmiths, University of London.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">See more of David Mabb\u2019s work on his website by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.contemporaryartsociety.org\/artist-members\/david-mabb\/\"><span class=\"s2\">clicking here.<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1766\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1766\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1766 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/3.jpg?resize=625%2C416&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"cedric christie\" width=\"625\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/3.jpg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/3.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/3.jpg?resize=624%2C416&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/3.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/3.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1766\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Announcer, installation view, William Morris Gallery, 2015, photo Paul Tucker.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1767\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1767\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1767 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/2.jpg?resize=625%2C933&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2\" width=\"625\" height=\"933\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/2.jpg?resize=686%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 686w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/2.jpg?resize=201%2C300&amp;ssl=1 201w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/2.jpg?resize=624%2C931&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/2.jpg?w=1644&amp;ssl=1 1644w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/2.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1767\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elegy to the Third International IX with Strawberry Thief frame, oil paint and mixed media on canvas. 1988-2011.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interview\/davidmabb.mp3Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | TuneIn | RSS | Click here to join mailing listDavid Mabb is a British artist who works with appropriated imagery to rethink the political implications of different aesthetic forms in modern art and design history.
