Jeremy Deller’s ‘The Battle of Orgreave (An Injury to One is an Injury to All)’ is coming to the NGCA in Sunderland this June.

The Miners’ Strike, of course, had a profound and long-lasting effect on the north-east, and to mark the 40th anniversary of that dispute, NGCA Collection Space is screening ‘The Battle of Orgreave’, Mike Figgis’ film of Jeremy Deller’s re-enactment of the violent confrontation between police and miners outside the coking plant at Orgreave in South Yorkshire – which was one of the most crucial episodes of the strike. Also on display will be a selection of photographs taken during the strike including photos of pickets at Monkwearmouth and Easington Collieries, as well as marches and demonstrations in Sunderland.
