As a finale to the exhibition, Christine de Luca will read her twelve poems, inspired by the art of John Henry Lorimer. We will move through the exhibition with her as she performs each poem in front of the painting that inspired it. Stools will be available.

Throughout the exhibition also watch out for some poems in the stories section of our website and on social media written by poet Christine De Luca inspired by paintings in our Lorimer exhibition.
