Strange Events Permit Themselves the Luxury of Occurring: Steven Claydon Dec 7 2007
Strange Events Permit Themselves the Luxury of Occurring: Steven Claydon. This is the name
of the exhibition soon to be presented at the Camden Arts Centre. The
name was taken from a detective by Charlie Chan which appeared on screens in
1930s. Following the success of the previous artist-curator shows, this time the
centre asked artist Steven Claydon to choose works for the exhibition. The
exhibition serves one major topic: it examines relations between works of art
and the institutions that represent them. The highlights of the exhibition are
the 20-century photographs by Jacob Epstein and Alberto Giacometti, paintings by
Francis Picabia and ceramics by Hans Coper. A few names exhibiting at Camden
Arts Centre are: Douglas Binder, Jeffery Camp, Neil Chapman, Vincent Fecteau,
Peter Lanyon… a total of more than 30 artists. The exhibition is opened 7
December 2007 - 10 February 2008.
