Richard Wentworth's seminar on sculpture

About

Down to Earth is predominantly a sculptural exhibition with work by Jane McAdam Freud (cast bronze, clay and 'earthworks') Saad Qureshi (Installation) and Aziz+Cucher (video installation) demonstrating the remarkable variety of contemporary practice and theoretical approach.

The aim of our seminar is to provide a starting point to discuss contemporary trends, address issues facing both curatorial and artistic practice and deliver a lively debate on the process of making and looking at sculpture in the 21st C.

The event will begin with a tour of the exhibition in which Saad Qureshi and Jane McAdam Freud will discuss their work in situ and would then flow into a more universal discussion on sculpture lead by renowned British sculptor Richard Wentworth. As part of the seminar, Richard Wentworth will discuss his own practice and experience - both as an artist and a teacher and will then lead into a more general discussion of contemporary trends in sculpture which will offer the opportunity for audience discussion.

The seminar is free and open to both general public and art professionals but booking is essential www.gazelliarthouse.com, +44 (0) 20 7788 7658.
