About
In his recent book ‘Art and Value’, Dave Beech examines the idea that art is not a standard commodity.

This event is co-organised with Valand Academy and presented by Camberwell, Chelsea, Wimbledon Graduate School Public Programme. Held in association with the Institute of Contemporary Arts London.
