Jeremy Deller, Protest House, Cardiff, Wales, 2001.
"Over the course of seven years, Jeremy Deller and Alan Kane collected objects and photographs of places, customs, and things that they propose 'might constitute modern day folk art.' Deller has stated: 'Warhol said that pop art was about liking things, whereas for me folk art is about loving things.'" [V&A]
