OG Late x Life Through Extraordinary Mirrors

OG Late is back! Join us for a night of art, music and drink in celebration of our current exhibition and Black History Month.

On Friday 18th October, October Gallery will open its doors after hours for the third OG Late.

See a special view of the exhibition Life Through Extraordinary Mirrors. The exhibition features works by Romuald Hazoumè / Eddy Kamuanga Ilunga / Cyrus Kabiru / Zak Ové / Alexis Peskine / LR Vandy / Cosmo Whyte. Painting, sculpture and photography in the exhibition draws upon themes of place, identity and human experience. These seven artists interweave their personal experiences with global realities to present an astute view on the world we live in.

"This exhibition explores the agony and ecstasy of the globalised 21st century"
