Overview

How are exhibitions created and artworks juxtaposed to form powerful interactions, resonate with meaning and represent more than the sum of their parts? What happens when Curators collaborate with Artists over prolonged periods? What is creative about the process of hanging an exhibition? What resonances, harmonies and visual dynamics are at play?

Join Artistic Director of October Gallery, Elisabeth Lalouschek, in conversation with Director of Special Projects, Gerard Houghton, for a talk which aims to unpack these intriguing questions, using the works in Vital Force to highlight 45 years of October Gallery’s partnership with some of the world’s most renowned contemporary artists.

Disabled access is available as the talk will take place on the ground floor, within the exhibition, Vital Force.
