Tonight we’re celebrating. It’s the opening of ARTEXPRESS 2013, the popular exhibition of outstanding student artworks. Marking the 30th anniversary of ARTEXPRESS exhibitions at the Gallery, students will talk about their works in the space and in a special celebrity conversation, journalist and author Gretel Killeen will interview select students about their experiences.
We’re also continuing to celebrate the love in association with We used to talk about love: Balnaves contemporary: photomedia with the start of a fantastic new film series, Ain’t there anyone here for love?, and music in the Artbar.
Join us in the Artbar for champagne and oysters for the last night of Summer in Soho and the last chance to see Francis Bacon: five decades, which ends on Sunday.
