Alan Dunn `Artists Uses of The Word `Revolution'

Liverpool-based artist Alan Dunn has created an ambitious work exploring the
manners in which artists have used the term `revolution' over the past 100
years. Taking inspiration from The Beatles' 1968 collage `Revolution 9', which
does not even mention the word, he has compiled a double-CD set of new and
historically important spoken word and music. Contributors include youtube
amateurs, Marcel Duchamp, artist Douglas Gordon, Belgian folk singers, riot
grrls, Aldous Huxley, Cuban artists, Spanish punks, Belarussian beats, Kurdish
poets, Mexican hip-hop, the censored Sara Jones and death metal bands.

With the kind support of Robert Pollard, David Newgarden and Rich Turiel, he was
also able to include Boston Spaceships' 'Headache Revolution' to mark Pollard's
frequent use of the term (hero blows the revolution, can't hear the revolution,
revolution boy, the revolutionary actress, recommended out of sight revolution
and with revolution red eyes).

Only 1,000 of these CDs are being produced and distributed freely. See
www.alandunn67.co.uk/revolution.html for full track listing and CD artwork. In
2006, Dunn presented a version of Pollard's 'Normals In Tight West' collage on a
billboard in Liverpool, with the original mock-up of how the image would look
used on the back of the free live 'moon' CD.
