Kemp has commissioned totally one-off work from dozens of the top British craftspeople working today. A major feature is the bespoke plate wall installation, where Kemp has ambitiously asked 100 makers to create one plate each in the material of their choice: wood, ceramics, metal, textiles or glass.
As part of the exhibition CAA is launching a new service called ‘Commissioning Craft’ meant to demystify the process of commissioning a piece of work for an interior. CAA will provide a specially designed guide and a dedicated member of staff to customers who sign up for the service.
Kit Kemp will be in the gallery for an informal discussion on Wednesday 22nd September 2.30 -3.30pm.
A satellite CAA exhibition, 'Untitled: glass inspired by architecture' by Kate Maestri at Circus, 58 Marylebone High Street, W1U 5HT, exhibits work inspired by a selection of buildings including the National Theatre and the Barbican in London.
These three-dimensional art works interpret and abstract the architecture into stained glass and Perspex sculptures using colour, light and form. For her large-scale work Maestri uses innovative methods to incorporate traditional stained glass into contemporary architectural structures in collaboration with world class architects and engineers.
Opening times: Monday to Saturday 10am - 6pm
