- Synopsis:
Who links The Beatles, Ken Russell, Peter Cook, Richard Lester, Fairport Convention, the Goons, The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, animator Bob Godfrey and Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller? The answer: Mr Bruce Lacey. And if Bruce Lacey has himself somehow remained 'off our radar' in recent times, it wasn't always like that. A legendary figure on the British counter-cultural art scene during the 1960s, he has enjoyed six decades of defining cultural moments, collaborating with all manner of filmmakers, musicians and artists.
