The Inaugural Bazaar Art Walk: A London Gallery Weekend
by Gingersnap | damian-lewis.com | May 30, 2024
On Thursday night, May 30, 2024, Harper’s Bazaar celebrated the start of London Gallery Weekend in style by inaugurating their specially curated route through the city centre. Like Damian and Alison, you too can follow Bazaar’s curated art trail this London Gallery Weekend. Take on an abundance of art shows with their carefully mapped-out route as a guide.
With more than 120 exhibits taking part in London Gallery Weekend, the challenge is choosing which to fit in. Bazaar is on hand to help: they have curated a route through the city’s centre taking in three stellar shows, which visitors can wander between in their own time, and see bodies of work by a trio of different artists who are united by their bold, boundary-bending approach.
The shows include Vicken Parsons’ “Time” at Cristea Roberts Gallery, Danica Lundy’s “Boombox” at White Cube Mason’s Yard and Robert Rauschenberg’s “Roci” at Thaddaeus Ropac.
Pictured left, Damian and Alison take a photo of their reflection through art at Robert Rauschenberg’s “Roci” art show, which runs at Thaddaeus Ropac until June 15.
In 1984, the American graphic artist Robert Rauschenberg embarked on a seven-year quest to foster cross-cultural understanding through art, particularly in communities with limited freedom of creative expression.
Drawing on the connections he made with artists, artisans and prominent figures, Rauschenberg amplified stories from places including China, Cuba and Chile through innovative use of materials and form. Showcased for the first time since 1991, the work is as arresting as it is politically powerful.
London Gallery Weekend is open to the public from May 31 – June 2, 2024. View more photos from the event in our Gallery.
