Civil Twilight & Other Social Works' explores the performance artwork of provocative Scots artist Roddy Hunter. Through the artist's own texts and archival documentation Hunter introduces us to his methodology of research into the idea of urban civic centres as places where collective identity is formed. In these works, Hunter spends extended periods of time walking the central squares in cities like Sfântu Gheorghe, Sheffield, Dundee, London, Minsk, Timisoara, Nové Zámky, Barcelona, Belfast, Los Angeles, Tel Aviv, and Budapest, encouraging passers-by to engage with him in conversation on issues of civil importance.
