Promised Land Poster

For 50 years Andrew Holmes has been working on a series of 150 large-scale drawings. A selection of 26 of these is collected together for this exhibition. His favourite subject has always been Los Angeles, or rather the lines of transportation that sustain the city across the harsh surrounding desert.The work exposes the illusions and delusions of freedom of any individual tied to this compelling, restrictive system, and the fragility of a society dependent on a supply of cheap oil.
