Curator Mel Gooding to speak at SAB Gallery


Next week, on Thurs 28 Jan 2010 at 6pm, eminent art writer and critic Mel Gooding will speak at the Stanley & Audrey Burton Gallery about curating our current exhibition 'A Discipline of the Mind.' The event is free and open to all, so it's a great opportunity to hear this experienced curator discuss his concept and methodology.


Mel is a fascinating individual, with plenty of stories about figures in the art world he's met in the course of his work - in particular, the many audio interviews he's conducted with major British artist in the past decades for the National Life Stories: Artists' Lives project. Well worth dropping by to meet him!
