Partial Presence
With art world greats such as On Kawara, Ed Atkins and Miroslaw Balka (pictured) you may be surprised to hear that this is somewhat of a student show. Students from Goldsmiths College and The Cass, London Metropolitan University MFA Curating Courses are taking part in the Testing Ground series. Taking work that is often considered as conceptual the students have revisited key works to test the idea of presence and how this is changed though documentation and exhibiting.
