Bruce Mclean:

For his first London solo exhibition, Objects No Concepts at Situation gallery, McLean makes a series of live performances including There’s a Sculpture on My Shoulder. Images of famous sculptures by an earlier generation of artists are projected onto the wall behind him. As each slide moves on, he staggers as if under their weight, making a witty comment on the overbearing influence of his predecessors.

Situation Gallery:

Situation, which did not designate itself as a ‘gallery’, was a small outfit with rooms in Horse Shoe Yard, Brook Street, W1, devoted to the promotion of ‘difficult’ and unconventional work, and was London’s principal venue for home-grown conceptual art.
