Artist Studio Visit — Keith Coventry
2nd March — 2nd March 2010
Address given on RSVP,
Collector members are invited to join us for an exclusive evening with Keith Coventry at his East London studio. Coventry’s art demonstrates an enduring interest in the dark flipside of idealism: urban decay, social failure, drug abuse, and alienation.
Many of the art historical references that Coventry deploys are defined by the utopian ideals of Modernism, the aim of which was to refashion the world.
Coventry, a dynamic personality, plays with these beliefs and shows them to be misplaced, even misconceived, the gulf between belief and reality stimulating a series of troubling undercurrents in his work.
Spaces are limited, ensure your space by booking early.
