Join artist Andy Holden as part of the Art in the City series of lectures.

Polymorphic in nature, Andy Holden’s practice encompasses a diverse creative output, from monumental outdoor sculpture to lectures on birdlife to his band The Grubby Mitts, yet it is tied together by a fascination with how we imbue the things that surround us with meaning through both mental and physical manipulation.

Holden will discuss his practice in the light of his current major exhibition Maximum Irony! Maximum Sincerity, 1999-2003, towards a unifying history of M!MS at Zabludowicz Collection, London.
