A golden ticket for nosey parkers - Dulwich Artists Open Houses 2018!

22 April 2018

Every May for two weekends all around Dulwich in South London, hundreds of family homes open their doors and welcome total strangers inside to snoop around. The houses are owned by artists and art lovers and they curate shows of eye-popping variety and scope. It’s a brilliant reminder of how much creativity there is everywhere. I am an interloper as I live in nearby Brixton but I never miss it – this year I’m showing my work (some new paintings amongst other things!) appearing in two venues with separate groups of artists – put the dates in your diaries and join us!

7. Lucy de Sautoy: for no other reason than I once went with my son to this very fancy house in Herne Hill when he was a small boy, and he still talks about her pressing a button and a light turning on in the floor......Then a circle of glass moved open with a soft hiss and the owner clip-clopped down to the wine cellar in the middle of her enormous kitchen and retrieved another bottle of crisp white to drink with her friends.  We can't remember what the work was like at all but it's worth visiting just to see her go into the wine cellar. 9 Stradella Rd SE24, first weekend only.
