Two leading artists in conversation on material, form, and the evolving language of abstraction
Overview
This panel, developed in collaboration with Apollo Magazine, brings together two internationally renowned artists, Tony Cragg and Sean Scully, for a conversation on their artistic practices and ongoing dialogue.
