South African artist Ed Young has risen to fame with his provocative and socio-critical interventions in galleries and art institutions, and as co-manager of a project room in his home city of Cape Town. Ed Young plays with the role of the artist as the jester, entertainer and admonisher, and provokes viewers with works which critically mirror society and the art industry with subversive humour.
