Late at Tate Liverpool
Night of Bling
Roll up for an evening of entertainment and enchantment. Sit in on an interdisciplinary salon on art and architecture with experts Professors Peter Vergo and Pamela Robertson on the connections and comparisons between the Arts and Crafts movement in Britain and America and the Wiener Werkstätte in Austria.
Follow a glittering tour of the exhibition led by Tobias Natter, renowned author and co-curator of the show on Klimt’s golden period. View the shimmering Klimt bio-pic starring John Malkovich and indulge in some fin de siècle scintillating cabaret in the form of artist Camille O’Sullivan, who comes to Liverpool fresh from the Edinburgh Fringe Speigeltent.
Also 'Cradle to the Grave', a salon comparing and contrasting the two approaches in a debate between the Wiener Werkstätte movement in Austria and that of the Arts and Crafts movement in Britain and America. The discussion features Professor Peter Vergo, University of Essex – an expert in Viennese art of the period and Professor Pamela Robertson, Senior Curator of the Whistler and Mackintosh collections at the Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow.
