Arthaus Private View: ‘Present Tense’

Are you aged between 15 – 19 years? Join us for a free, after-hours exhibition tour of ‘Present Tense’, designed especially for young people.

After the exhibition tour, you will have the opportunity to learn about Hauser & Wirth Somerset’s Youth Group Arthaus.

This is a free event but advance booking is required. If you would like to join the event, or become a member of Arthaus, please contact our Learning team at hwsomersetlearning@hauserwirth.com.

About ‘Present Tense’
‘Present Tense’ spotlights the next generation of artists living and working in the UK, from emerging to mid-career, celebrating a breadth of creative talent and socially engaged practices. The multifaceted group presentation consists of 23 contemporary artists outside of the Hauser & Wirth roster, testing the boundaries of their mediums to address and confront notions of identity, consciousness, humanity and representation. Through their individual lens, each artist is responding to the cultural climate of the UK right now, depicting a range of lived experiences that co-exist and connect within the rich fabric of the same location.

The exhibition is on view through Sunday 28 April.

About Arthaus
Arthaus is a group specifically for young people aged 15 – 19 years who are interested in learning more about art and architecture, and who wish to meet other people with similar interests. They meet at the gallery once a month and have the opportunity to meet our artists, gallery team and specialists in a series of events such as workshops, conversations, tours and talks. The group helps to develop communication skills and an understanding of the art world through a range of exciting and innovative youth-led projects.
