Join us on the first Monday in April for an artist talk by Adrienne Doig, which will close her stunning exhibition, It’s all about me!
Doig will discuss her broad practice and specific works within the exhibition, which span the last three decades and fuse historical references and humour to respond to the everyday and reflect on now.
