Sarah Lucas: Art by Offenders, Secure Patients and Detainees
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 25TH NOVEMBER 2012
Nearby

British artist Sarah Lucas presents a showcase of visual art, music, film and creative writing from a unique source - prisoners, detainees, secured patients and others in secure settings. Thousands of pieces were submitted from across the UK criminal justice system and the works carefully selected by Lucas are on display for two months at the Southbank Centre. The exhibition is presented in partnership with the Koestler Trust, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, and the exhibition tours will be led by ex-offender interns, all of whom are specially recruited by the Trust.
