A talk with painter Jock McFadyen, poet/artist Jo Self and author Iain Sinclair about Sinclair's new exhibition 'Pariah Genius: John Deakin, The Psychobiography of a Photographer'. Francisco Garcia chairs.

Join novelist Iain Sinclair, artist Jock McFadyen RA and poet and artist Jo Self as they reminisce about bohemian Soho, the criminal East End, and the picaresque cast of dropouts, poets, artists, and chancers that seem to have all but disappeared from modern London.

A rare opportunity to hear stories from the Colony Room and the streets of Soho from those that were there and remember them, this talk will be chaired by journalist and author Francisco Garcia (We All Go Into the Dark, 2023 and If You Were There, 2017).
