Booking and attending Friends excursions and events
Friends are invited to a fascinating behind-the-scenes tour of one of Europe's leading fine art foundries, AB Fine Art.
Specialising in the highest quality bronze casting, AB Fine Art has frequently partnered with many of the world’s most celebrated artists, including Royal Academicians Tracy Emin, Anish Kapoor, Anthony Gormley and Cathie Pilkington.
This private tour of AB Fine Art offers a unique insight into sculptural practice, giving us an understanding of the distinctive physical properties and qualities of bronze, and a rare opportunity to see a working foundry where specialist metalworkers manipulate this precious metal, as well as the technical equipment they use on a daily basis.
This event will also be held on 19 April 2018
