Bill Rolston has been photographing political murals in Northern Ireland since 1981 and he is a leading authority on the subject. This exhibition will be based on his photographs, many of which have been published through five volumes entitled Drawing Support between 1991 and 2022 and on his website. The tradition of political mural painting here began in 1908, making it the longest continuous example in the world.
