Ryan Gander: The Gift

Tuesday 3 May - Saturday 2 July

This is a past event which has now ended.

Ryan Gander O.B.E, RA Elect, is an internationally significant conceptual artist working across media including sculpture, fashion, writing, installation, and performance. His work is often compared to a puzzle; a game in which the artist stages the fragments of a set of clues to be decoded or interpreted by the viewer.

In his site-specific presentation for East Gallery, Gander considers the theme of time, working from a phrase often repeated by his father ‘Time is your greatest asset’.

With the support of the Norfolk & Norwich Festival and Norwich University of the Arts the exhibition presents multiple new works, including Everything is Broken Down, 2022.

Gander and East Gallery are pleased to collaborate with Houghton Hall, where More really shiny things that don’t mean anything, 2012 will be displayed in the landscape. Entrance with Houghton Hall admission fee.

Following the same theme, Gander and East Gallery are pleased to collaborate with Houghton Hall, where Shiny Things that don’t really mean anything, 2012 will be displayed in the landscape.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
