Our 2021 Artists

Unmissable Khaled paintings in dialogue with Skinner‘s photograph. Bagguley‘s paintings align with Zattarin‘s work in a dialogue of compassion. A vibrant hope installation by Parejo and Anon is in tune with Lieberman‘s Extended Ocean work.

For the first time we will have a digital art room in which exciting artists share new opportunities created by the 4th industrial revolution.
