Hosted by those leaders of the free world, Intelligence Squared, the afternoon shall focus on the self-taught & unintentional artists presented in Exhibition #4 & Exhibition #4.1, their relationship to contemporary art practices, whether they still represent a challenge to art history, theory & curation or whether they are simply art.
Participants include: that superstar of the South Bank, Ralph Rugoff, director of the Hayward Gallery; the brand new & remarkably curious Chris Dercon, director of Tate Modern; the pioneering art historian Roger Cardinal who invented the term outsider art & who perhaps will claim it back on stage; a force of nature & Britain’s greatest sculptor, our hero Antony Gormley; the brilliant, insightful & prolific contemporary artist, Alice Anderson; & our grand inquisitor, Channel 4 News‘ legendary embodiment in human form, Jon Snow.
Tickets are £7.50 in advance, £10 on the door.
