1980s & 1990s Gallery
Opening with the haunting words of The Specials’ song ‘Ghost Town’,
this traces the demise of Coventry’s car industry in the ‘80s and its
stabilisation during the 1990s. Along the way it explores themes such as
the globalisation of car companies, increasing environmental concerns,
the growth of interest in cycling (particularly BMX-ing and
skateboarding) and the influence of fashion and lifestyle.
