About this show
Long regarded as the bravest of the Young British Artists, Jake Chapman holds no punches when it comes to attacking... well, everything really. This time it's the "wellness" industry. Oh yes. Jake's relentless bravery and uncompromising questioning straddles a fine line between utterly shocking and laugh out loud funny. He's an essential voice in the world of contemporary art, and this new exhibition is a UK first, created especially for Edinburgh.
