Open House at Delfina Foundation

Laura Wilson, Rolling, 2017

This Saturday 20 May, 12-3pm I am presenting Rolling (2017), a new performance at Delfina Foundation as part of Open House.

Open House

Saturday 20–Sunday 21 May: Open to the public, 12–8pm
Delfina Foundation, 29–31 Catherine Place, London, SW1E 6DY

Open House responds to Delfina Foundation’s acclaimed international artist-in-residence programme during which creative producers live and work at the Foundation’s base in Central London. Drawing on the personal memories of participants’ residency experiences over the last eleven years, writers, curators, artists and performers, have been commissioned to produce temporary interventions in the private and public areas of the Delfina space. Over a single weekend this programme of vibrant participatory and performative work will catalyse the Foundation’s architecture, to explore ideas of ‘being in residence’, the intersections between public and private, and what it means to collect intangible experiences, rather than physical artifacts.

Artists: Manal Al Dowayan, Mudar Alhajji, Kathrin Böhm, Leone Contini, Srajana Kaikini, Yazan Khalili, Hala Muhanna, Judy Price, Alessandra Saviotti, Laura Wilson

Curators: Kerry Campbell, Cecilia Giurgevich, Zena Khan, Nicholas Osborne, Linda Rocco, Elizabeth Thornhill

Open House is a partnership between Delfina Foundation and six curators from the Curating Contemporary Art MA Programme at the Royal College of Art, part of Graduate Projects 2017.
