Description
Join us for an exclusive curator-led tour with a focus on women artists in the Linklaters art collection. This will also be an opportunity to see how contemporary art has been integrated with the architecture of Linklaters’ impressive new headquarters in The City. Curator Catherine Shearn has developed a collection that emphasises connections between artists, ideas and artistic processes, displayed throughout the new building. The collection aims to create an environment in which art is encountered as part of everyday life. Works by Rana Begum, Barbara Hepworth, Tess Jaray, Rebecca Salter and Eva Rothschild sit alongside those of emerging and lesser-known artists, reflecting a collecting philosophy that values artistic quality, curiosity and dialogue rather than reputation alone. The collection is particularly notable for revealing connections and influences across generations of artists and for illuminating the creative processes behind the works themselves.
The visit will conclude with drinks, providing time for conversation and further discussion of the collection.
Tuesday 3 November 2026 at 6 pm.
Tickets: Patrons and one guest – free; Friends – £20.
