In partnership with Edinburgh Beer Factory , place+platform presents 'Poor Form' in collaboration with artists from Poor Art* collective. Much like the Pop-Art movement from the 50s and 60s, of which Edinburgh artist Paolozzi was king, this exhibition takes inspiration from popular culture, with lo-fi wit and humour at it's core.
