Hales Gallery is pleased to announce Basil Beattie's participation in the symposium New Contemporaries 1949 to Now at the Institute of Contemporary Arts on 28 November.
Symposium chaired by Patricia Bickers (Editor, Art Monthly) and Iwona Blazwick (Director, Whitechapel Gallery). Speakers include the artists Basil Beattie, Matt Copson, Neil Cummings, Dexter Dalwood, Bruce Lacey, Yelena Popova, Bob & Roberta Smith and Jane & Louise Wilson, alongside industry experts Sarah Philp, Head of Programmes at the Art Fund, and Hugo Worthy, Leicester Arts and Museums Service.
New Contemporaries and the Art Fund present a symposium bringing together New Contemporary alumni artists with writers and curators to address the challenges facing emerging artists working in the UK today. Panels present an informed survey of how an artist's practice is developed, defined and cared for today, with speakers discussing the contemporary state of education, the market and art collections, alongside the issue of how to support practice.
