Venue Type:
Gallery
Three Floors Down: In the Studio
- 3 December 2014 — 28 February 2015 *on now
In the 1940s and 50s (when the University was known as Borough Polytechnic), the celebrated artist and teacher, David Bomberg, taught his legendary art classes in the life-drawing studios three floors above where Borough Road Gallery is now situated. Bomberg was passionate about the importance of art within society and about supporting artists in their careers. The aim for the residency is to continue Bomberg’s legacy by inspiring new work and supporting the development of an artist and their practice, whilst at the same time offering the opportunity to engage with, understand, and enjoy 'A David Bomberg Legacy – The Sarah Rose Collection' in new, unexpected and creative ways.
Sluglett will be based in the Gallery for three months, making new work inspired by 'A David Bomberg Legacy – The Sarah Rose Collection'. As well as her studio space, the Gallery will also house a dedicated display of works from 'A David Bomberg Legacy – The Sarah Rose Collection' selected by Sluglett and the Gallery.
