The SLG building project gets under way The SLG's exciting expansion project has started.
The year-long project will transform a neighbouring
derelict house into further exhibition spaces, a café
and a flat for a programme of artists' residencies. The
newly landscaped Fox Garden at the rear of the house
will lead to the Clore Studio: a flexible space for
screenings, talks and events and activities for families
and schools. The SLG will remain open throughout the
build with the new spaces due to open in June 2010.
The SLG Collection Online Selected works from the SLG's contemporary
collection are now available to view online. The South
London Gallery collection began with the inception of
the gallery in 1891. It has grown over the gallery's
lifetime and includes works by Modern British artists, a
collection of more than 500 20th century prints and
nearly 100 contemporary works, many of which relate to
South London. Although the collection is not on
permanent display it is it is a valuable resource for
loans to temporary exhibitions and for projects with
schools allowing pupils hands-on experience of
contemporary works of art. Click on the link below to
