Date: Thursday April 15th 2010
Time: 6pm
Place: The Billy Childish Exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA), 12 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1Y 5AH
The Arts Social Network is an opportunity for those who identify with the diagnosis of personality disorder to meet at cultural events. It is being organised to give people who may be very isolated an opportunity to make new friends and enjoy the experience of going to a cultural event with a peer group who can appreciate the difficulties of having a personality disorder.
Artist, musician and writer Billy Childish is a cult figure, and one who has gained an international following, but this is the first time a public institution has brought together a major solo exhibition to encompass his extraordinary career. His prodigious range of activities can best be understood as a total work of art - one which centres on his own persona. Unknowable but Certain presents the vitality of his recent work as a culmination of over three decades’ engagement across different media.
See http://ica.org.uk/23059/Visual-Art/Billy-Childish-Unknowable-but-Certain.html for more information about the exhibition.
For further information and to let us know you are coming, please contact us at asnpplus@hotmail.com or telephone 07549 878510. This is a P+ event, so please don't contact the ICA for details.
The next Arts & Social Network event will be on the 13th May - details to be confirmed.
