This will run as part of the CRAG  2 programme with an illustrated talk from Douglas Field about the late Jeff Nuttall (1933-2004), painter, poet, writer, musician, performer, teacher, publisher, sculptor, ceramicist, actor – and former resident of Todmorden.

Jeff Nuttall was a British painter, sculptor, poet, writer, performer, jazz musician, and teacher who became one of the leading figures of the UK’s 1960s counterculture. He is best known for his influential 1968 book Bomb Culture, which documented and championed the emerging underground arts scene, anti-war activism, and experimental culture of the era. Nuttall also founded the underground magazine My Own Mag, co-founded the pioneering performance group The People Show, and taught generations of artists at British art schools.

Douglas Field is a writer, academic and Professor of American Literature at Manchester University.

There will be a series of events, performances and talks as part of CRAG 2.  For more information click here.
