Colin Latter - PAINTING EXHIBITION opens this Friday with an artist talk and special collaboration with our very own Boff Whalley who will be asking Colin all about his work and life inspired by their shared punk histories. Colin was vocalist with the punk band Flux of Pink Indians, writing lyrics, organising gigs and setting up a record label. For more than a decade Colin created artwork for record sleeves, fanzines and gig posters. Today a touch of that anarchic spirit lives on in his work.
