12 February 2018

On February 19-23, 2018, British gallerist Hannah Barry will be a new resident at IZOLYATSIA. On February 22, at 7 PM, she will make a presentation of the Bold Tendencies Community Interest Company and Hannah Barry Gallery she founded, at the IZONE Creative Community. 

Bold Tendencies is a non-profit organisation which supports site-specific sculpture, architecture, orchestral music and opera facilitating the making of ambitious new work for a former parking lot rooftop in Peckham. Founded alongside a gallery in 2007, today it enables an annual world-class arts and cultural programme and civic space open to the public. Bold Tendencies animates its programme and the site for schools, families and the neighbourhood through standalone education and community programmes that take culture and civic values seriously.  With immersive public spaces and spectacular views across London, the project has attracted more than 1.5 million visitors so far.

Hannah Barry’s presentation will take place at IZONE, vul. Naberezhno-Luhova 8.
