Running until 13 December Anna Oppermann: Cotoneaster horizontalis is an exhibition at DJCAD’s Cooper Gallery. The show is built around the display of 1982 ensemble Cotoneaster horizontalis (Anticommunication Design) and features early drawings, prints, collages and other archival material.

Focused on the personal and the political, the exhibition showcases Oppermann’s practice and its development around her sculptural situations or ‘ensembles’.
