Edward Barber

Imperial War Museum, London

NOW CLOSED

Taken originally to gain publicity for the movement, Barber’s collected body of work, Peace Signs today represents an important social document of these major protests against the presence of American nuclear cruise missiles in Britain between 1980 and 1984. Barber’s images will appear alongside a newly commissioned graphic installation entitled Mind Map of Anti-Nuclear Protest to create a social record of both individual and collective responses to war.
