Billed as “a major exhibition exploring the capacity of artworks to both warn us of political, social and ecological upheaval, and to serve as a source of replenishment”, Here is a Gale Warning: Art, Crisis & Survival brings work by eight contemporary artists to Cambridge’s Kettle’s Yard until June 29. Responding to everything from housing crises and ecological breakdown to racialised violence and colonial displacement, “these artists may attest to a broken world,” say curators, “but they also work to heal, mend and imagine new possibilities for survival.” See kettlesyard.cam.ac.uk
