Marking 75 years since the Festival of Britain, Hayward Gallery Touring presents an exhibition bringing together artists who have participated in the British Art Show, at The Base this autumn.This vibrant and eclectic exhibition brings together 50 acclaimed artists who have participated in the British Art Show – widely recognised as the most important recurrent exhibition of contemporary art produced in the UK – since its inception in 1979.
Taking inspiration from Marcel Duchamp’s La Boîte-en-Valise [Box in a Suitcase] – a 'portable museum' contained within a suitcase – each artist has created a new, small-scale work that responds to their original British Art Show presentation. The result is a condensed yet expansive overview of a half-century of British art history – certainly an exhibition not to be missed! A Hayward Gallery Touring exhibition from Southbank Centre, London.
