Held at the V&A in 1946, Britain Can Make It set out to position Britain at the forefront of global industrial design. One of the exhibits we discuss is this electric bike prototype, designed by Benjamin Bowden.

I really enjoyed seeing Resistance, the new exhibition at Turner Contemporary Margate @turnercontemporary.bsky.social a wonderful show of photographs documenting 20th c British protest movements.

The thrill of seeing something you’ve written in a bookshop never seems to fade: yesterday I spotted my new book “Showing Resistance” - about exhibitions as propaganda in mid-20th c Britain - in excellent company at Tate Britain. Also available to download www.manchesterhive.com/display/9781...
