Partners: Flow Gallery

The shape of things at flow features new work by Alinah Azadeh, Halima Cassell, Chien-Wei Chang, Tanvi Kant, Seiko Kinoshita, Taslim Martin, Rosa Nguyen, Maggie Scott, Rezia Wahid, made in response to the shape of things. By bringing these artists together for the first time flow enables the visitor and collector to experience a flavour of this national programme in one location. The shape of things is an ambitious national initiative that explores the distinctive contribution artists make to influence or reflect national identity, the intercultural nature of British Society and its connections with global cultures through a series of exhibitions, installations and events throughout 2010-2011.
" This initiative, this collection of people is important now " Bonnie Greer, author, playwright
