To coincide with William Blake's 250th, Anstee will be exhibiting a new collection of work. The series features child-sized neon drawings of hooded apparitions, uniquely crafted from hand-blown Venetian Murano glass.

This is Anstee's first solo show in a commercial gallery, after exhibiting in major institutions, such as the De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill, the In Flanders Field Museum, Belgium and the Museum of Modern Art, Dublin. Anstee will also be exhibiting at the Bluecoat Gallery in Liverpool next year, as part of the Liverpool City of Culture.

More information about us, or our programme, can be found by emailing info@madder139.com

If you would like to visit Blake's grave it is 250 steps from MADDER139's door in Bunhill Fields.

PRIVATE VIEW - WEDNESDAY 14 NOVEMBER
