Abstract Expressionism
A tour of 'Abstract Expressionism' for wheelchair users and mobility impaired visitors.
Exploring an unparalleled period in American art, this long-awaited exhibition reveals the full breadth of a movement that will forever be associated with the boundless creative energy of 1950s New York.
Often monumental in scale, the works of the Abstract Expressionists are at times intense, spontaneous and deeply expressive. At others they are more contemplative, presenting large fields of colour that border on the sublime. These radical creations redefined the nature of painting.
Join us for an early morning tour of some of the most celebrated art of the past century.
This event includes refreshments, and volunteer support is provided.
