Jeremy Deller

„EVERYBODY IN THE PLACE: An Incomplete History of Britain 1984-1992“ 2018, 60´

Everybody in the Place is a documentary by Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller, exploring the socio-political history and lasting impact of the UK’s “Second Summer of Love.” Drawing on rare and unseen archive footage, Deller traces the rise of acid house and rave culture from its roots in Chicago and Detroit to its explosion across Britain’s underground dance floors. Framed through a lecture to A-level Politics students, the film situates rave culture as a powerful response to the social and economic tensions of the late 1980s—cutting across class, identity, and geography, and marking a moment of profound cultural and generational change.

Jeremy Deller (b. 1966; lives and works in London) studied Art History at the Courtauld Institute and at Sussex University. Deller won the Turner Prize in 2004 for his work ‘Memory Bucket’ and represented Britain in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013. He has been producing projects over the past two decades which have influenced the conventional map of contemporary art. He began making artworks in the early 1990s, often showing them outside conventional galleries.
