The title Ned James Festival of Women’s Work Werk comes from an artist represented by Division of Labour. Ned and the gallery owner, Nathaniel Pitt, were discussing the effect that the current global austerity policy is having on women. It was decided then, that Ned would give up his second solo show with Division of Labour and insisted on having a group show, so called. The Ned James Festival of Women’s Work Werk presents eight artists in recognition of their work relating to gender, class-consciousness, economics, work and leisure. In focus, many of the works explore complex questions about labour.
