Concert: The Birth of Modernism in Art and Music

  • Ben Elwes Fine Art 45 Maddox Street Mayfair W1S 2PE (map)

Ben Elwes Fine Art is to host a concert for string quartet as part of the gallery’s exhibition Re-Imagining Cubism. Four young, London-based musicians will play Dvorak and Stravinsky. The composition by the latter, the iconoclastic Three Pieces for String Quartet, composed between 1914 and 1918 will provide the perfect soundtrack to the works on show.

The evening will also feature a discussion about the relationship between art and music delivered by Grant Lewis, Curator of Italian and French Prints and Drawings at the British Museum.

Re-Imagining Cubism at Ben Elwes Fine Art brings global perspectives on Cubism to the UK for the first time. It introduces the art world to Swedish Cubo-Futurist Gösta Adrian-Nilsson (1884-1965), otherwise known as GAN, whose powerful work is virtually unknown outside his home country.

Drinks reception to follow. £15 per person.
