Marking 100 years since jazz reached Britain in the aftermath of the First World War, Two Temple Place, a spectacular neo-Gothic mansion on London's Victoria Embankment, reopens in January 2018 with its seventh annual winter exhibition, Rhythm & Reaction: The Age of Jazz in Britain. Produced in partnership with The Arts Society, on its 50th anniversary, this major exhibition brings together paintings of dancers by William Roberts and Frank Dobson, displayed alongside the Harlem-inspired paintings by Edward Burra. Prints, cartoons, textiles and ceramics, moving film, instruments and the all-important jazz sound are all used to examine the influence of jazz on British art, design and wider society.
