Join us for an exclusive studio visit with artist Ryan Gander and an in-conversation with Director of Goldsmiths CCA, Sarah McCrory.
Refreshments will be served.
Ryan Gander has established an international reputation through artworks that materialise in many different forms – from sculpture to film, writing, graphic design, installation, performance and more besides. Through associative thought processes that connect the everyday and the esoteric, the overlooked and the commonplace, Gander’s work involves a questioning of language and knowledge, as well as a reinvention of both the modes of appearance and the creation of an artwork. His work can be reminiscent of a puzzle, or a network with multiple connections and the fragments of an embedded story. It is ultimately a huge set of hidden clues to be deciphered, encouraging viewers to make their own associations and invent their own narrative in order to unravel the complexities staged by the artist.
Sarah McCrory is the Director of Goldsmiths Centre for Contemporary Art, London. Previously she directed Glasgow International, a biennial festival of visual art, and has previously been curator of Frieze Projects and Film, Studio Voltaire, a number of self-initiated London-based project spaces, and a Director of Vilma Gold. She is co-founder and a trustee of Open School East.
