This opportunity will enable an emerging artist based in the Spain to undertake a fully-funded residency at Gasworks in London from 1 April to 17 June 2019. Gasworks’ residencies are opportunities for self-led professional development, artistic exchange and experimentation.
Gasworks’ Participation Programme aims to widen access to contemporary art for local communities through interactive projects such as workshops, residencies, commissions and events.
Gasworks Participatory Artist’ Residency Programme: Connecting Communities, is a two year programme working directly with artists and migrant communities in Southwark and Lambeth, supported by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation.
First ever solo exhibition of Pablo Picasso’s work at Tate Modern, one of the most significant shows the gallery has ever staged. The ‘EY Exhibition: Picasso 1932 : Love, Fame, Tragedy’ takes visitors on a month-by-month journey through 1932, a time so pivotal in Picasso’s life and work that it has been called his ‘year of wonders’. More than 100 outstanding paintings, sculptures and works on paper will demonstrate his prolific and restlessly inventive character. They strip away common myths to reveal the man and the artist in his full complexity and richness.
One way of examining this is to consider the different and natural ways that we think, feel and act regardless of cultural context. The artists have explored the diverse elements of human identity, consciousness, spirituality, physicality, emotion and behaviour and have interpreted them using their own vision, understanding, feeling and experience.
You will discover the results of their exploration in a variety of media at this exhibition in Bethnal Green.
Espacio Gallery opened in 2012 and and founded by a group of artists working across all contemporary visual arts media who wanted a space of their own specially designed to meet their needs. They host a stimulating programme of exhibitions, talks and events, specially designed to support, promote and strengthen a local community of artists building relationships with existing prestigious galleries to reflect their ethos and aims.
