Ersatz interiors: Matthew Darbyshire’s ’An Exhibiton for Modern Living’
Matthew Darbyshire's 'An Exhibition for Modern Living' – which opened last week at the Manchester Art Gallery – borrows its name from a modern-design show at the Detroit Institute of Art back in 1949, a highly optimistic time when the city had America’s highest median income. The city is now, of course, broke – ruined from a combination of globalisation, inefficiency and its own hubris. And Darbyshire’s room sets of modern furniture and ersatz graffiti – Jacobsen chairs at centre – might as well be in the Next catalogue. How times have changed.
