Bob and Roberta Smith's Factory Outlet

7 Nov 2009-21 Feb 2010

Overview

Launch with performances 6/11/09 7-9pm. Array of recent works from this British Maverick, including new Beaconsfield Commission ‘This Artist is Deeply Dangerous’, Bob and Roberta’s largest painting to date inspired by Steve Bierley’s remarkable Guardian article about Louise Bourgeois. As recession bites, Bob & Roberta Smith are making the most of the spacious Beaconsfield premises, turning the former Ragged School into a prolific site of production for one whole year. On 6 November a launch event from 6pm will open a venue wide exhibition of Bob’s work in 'Phase: Bob and Roberta Smith, Factory Outlet: This Artist is Deeply Dangerous'. This is the first in the Beaconsfield series Phase, which turns the spotlight on mid-career artists with whom the organisation has had a significant past relationship.
