Mike Badger's Pop Archive

Please join us for the launch event of Mike Badger's Pop Archive.
Blurring the boundaries between creator and collector, Mike Badger’s Pop Archive features work from across a series of projects, alongside selections from his own archive of music and pop culture ephemera. Central to this exhibition will be the first showing of the results of a residency at ITV Granada in 2006-7, to celebrate the studio’s 50th anniversary. The work themed around different television programmes was produced by Mike, sometimes in collaboration with staff who worked on the programmes themselves. Alongside this, we will also be showing some of Mikes rockets and robot themed recycled metal sculptures and all kinds of memorabilia from his time in Liverpool, where he founded The La’s, to more recent musical projects.
