If you’re aged 16–25, visit our Making Modernism exhibition for free at one of five special evenings, part of BNP Paribas’ AccessArt25 programme.
Making Modernism is the first major UK exhibition devoted to the pioneering women working in Germany in the early 1900s: Paula Modersohn-Becker, Kӓthe Kollwitz, Gabriele Münter and Marianne Werefkin.
Combining impressive, bold and intimately-scaled works, this exhibition explores themes of identity, representation and belonging – all powerfully relevant today.
With BNP Paribas’ AccessArt25 programme, 16–25-year-olds can discover the innovative paintings and works on paper of these trailblazing women for free, on five exclusive evenings this winter.
Please note, attendees might be asked for ID to prove their age
Free, booking required.
