South London Gallery Fire Station

Southwark

1 upcoming event

South London Gallery Fire Station is an art venue in SE15, and it suits people who like to take their time. The programme leans towards contemporary art, with room given to individual artists rather than crowded group shows. You get space to look at one practice properly, and to see how an artist thinks across a body of work. The crowd tends to be people who already go looking for contemporary art. Come with some time and no checklist. A quick walk through rarely does the work justice. When you pick an event, think about what you want from the visit. If you enjoy work that reveals itself slowly, this is a good bet. If you want something loud or social, it may feel quiet.
