Whatever Happened to the Men of Tomorrow? presented new works by Slinkachu that continue to explore the artists trademark themes of loneliness and disillusionment engendered by the urban environment.
The exhibition originated from a series of one inch mini-installations created for the streets of London, left to be discovered by passers-by. These site specific interventions are captured through Slinkachu's photogrpahs and brought inside the gallery environment as limited editions.
A series of super-sized artworks also appeared at various billboard sites across the city throughout the exhibition. This project was a collaboration between Andipa and King Media to launch their new art sponsorship programme.
The exhibition featured a series of works inspired by Alan Moore's 'Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?', which reveals the dramatic end to the Superman legend with the superhero living as a simple, ordinary man. Slinkachu's characters find themselves over-weight, pale and balding, revealing a once heroic relationship to a city that has no interest for them anymore.
