Saatchi Art’s New Sensations and THE FUTURE CAN WAIT present London’s biggest independent curated exhibition.
Once again Saatchi Art’s New Sensations and THE FUTURE CAN WAIT join forces to present over 60 artists in Bloomsbury Square’s stunning museum scale venue Victoria House.
The exhibition is London’s longest running event alongside Frieze Art Fair and has become a key destination for discovering the best emerging to mid-career artists and recent graduates in the UK. Selected by contemporary art world taste makers, the event continues to provide the opportunity for first time buyers and world class collectors to acquire the most exciting new wave art.
New Sensations, sponsored by Absolut, and THE FUTURE CAN WAIT, were initiated in 2007. New Sensations was launched by Rebecca Wilson, chief curator of Saatchi Art, to support the most imaginative and talented young artists in the UK and to present their work to an international audience during Frieze week. THE FUTURE CAN WAIT was launched by Zavier Ellis and Simon Rumley as an ambitious, curated exhibition of emerging to mid-career artists to offer an alternative experience to the traditional gallery and art fair systems.
