Exhibition 'Architecture of London' in Guildhall Art Gallery & London's Roman Amphitheatre
400 years of London's architecture through the eyes of artists
Guildhall Art Gallery’s forthcoming exhibition brings together works from the 17th century to the present day to illustrate how London’s ever-changing cityscape has inspired visiting and resident artists over four centuries.
Architecture of London features 80 works by over 60 artists, drawing from the City of London Corporation’s extensive art collection to examine the rich diversity of London’s buildings and its varied portrayal by artists.
The exhibition also features important loans from other major British collections and a number of private collections, including masterpieces by renowned and emerging artists, such as Canaletto, Lucian Freud, Frank Auerbach and Catherine Yass.
