This exhibition is a fragmented narrative of Franko B’s creative and personal histories. Asking: Who is Franko B? What can we perceive about his identity through the archive? What relationships does this provoke between the audience, document and artist? Why do we fall in love with him? The exhibition will showcase a diverse range of documents from Franko’s archive, challenging what they embody and disseminate about his artistic practice and the contexts he works in.

Franko B’s archive is held as part of the Live Art Archives at the University of Bristol Theatre Collection.

The archive covers the last 25 years of Franko’s work and includes material in a wide variety of formats related to his performances, screenings, exhibitions, collaborations, mentoring, books and visual art.
