Pattern and Line: Histories and Narrative

Issues arising from both exhibitions are explored in an accompanying conference and talks, including speakers Sarah Wood and Will Self. The programme also included Uncaught Hares, a two-exhibition project, curated by David Webb and supported by Clifford Chance, which documents the practice, output and influence of artists working out of Greenwich Studios (1974 -1994): William Crozier, Clyde Hopkins, Vanessa Jackson, Jeff Lowe, Mali Morris et al.
