There will also be a number of exhibition tours taking place, on Saturday 24th October and 28th November led by Paul Purgas and Elisa Kay respectively.
Paul Purgas has a multi-disciplinary approach that brings together elements of sound and composition, architecture, industrial design and software programming. Originally trained as an architect and graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2004, he has since been based in the curatorial department at Arnolfini, Bristol and curated contemporary art and performance projects for Tate Britain, De La Warr Pavillion, Spike Island and Frieze Art Fair.
Elisa Kay is a dedicated curator who has worked over the last few years on British art since the 1960s. She was the founding director of Flat Time House, a home/studio display of the late John Latham, where she was responsible for curating a programme that contributed to some extensive research on his life and works, initiating a dialogue with subsequent generations of artists which resulted in commissions by artists Laure Prouvost and Bea McMahon. She has also been project manager for a shared programme of contemporary research and art at the Chisenhale Gallery, The Showroom and Studio Voltaire entitled How To Work Together.
The event is completely free but booking is advised. To book tickets click here.
