Beauty is the First Test - Curator's Tour

The opening night of 'Beauty is the First Test' will begin with a tour of the exhibition by curator Liz Cooper.

'Beauty is the First Test' is a group exhibition exploring how mathematical concepts underpin craft techniques and artistic development, in an attempt to demystify a subject that intimidates both adults and children, by showing unique and stimulating works of art. ‘Beauty is the First Test’ will draw together existing and new artworks to invite in-depth consideration of contemporary craft practice in this wider context. Beauty and playfulness will be evident in the exhibits to illustrate what delights craftspeople and maths geeks alike.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a full programme of events for young and old alike.

This exhibition is curated by Liz Cooper and has been supported by Arts Council England, and developed in partnership with Crafts Council, Wandsworth Children’s Services and The National Centre for Craft & Design.

Artists: Michael Brennand-Wood, Suresh Dutt, Janice Gunner, Lesley Halliwell, Lucy McMullen, Janette Matthews, Peter Randall Page, Ann Sutton, Laura Thomas
