 oved Me takes a critical look at “the beautiful game” through the lens
  of graphic design and illustration. The exhibition presents artwork from 
 an international selection of graphic artists made in response to an essay
  titled The World Cup And Its Pomps written in 1978 by the famous Italian 
 semiotician\, intellectual and writer\, Umberto Eco. Published in his coll
 ection of essays Travels In Hyperreality (1986)\, Eco links football “wi
 th the absence of purpose and the vanity of all things” questioning the 
 corrosive banality of its punditry\, its inherent prejudice and exclusivit
 y and its (a)political morality. The essay concludes with Eco asking rheto
 rically: “Is the armed struggle possible on World Cup Sunday… Is revol
 ution possible on a football Sunday?”\n\n
