Synopsis

City Racing charts ten years (1988-98) of an artist-run gallery in London. It reveals how five cash-strapped artists developed a squat into a locally and internationally respected gallery, giving artists access to an independently run but publicly funded project-space. The founding artist members - John Burgess, Keith Coventry, Matt Hale, Paul Noble and Peter Owen - provide a reflection and overview of a unique moment in recent art history through collective account, personal recollection, visual and written documentation.
