In the Evening There is Feeling: Reading 'English Magic'

Duration: 1h30m
Dates: Thu 20 Feb 2025 18:00

Led by DCA’s Exhibitions team, In the Evening There is Feeling  is DCA’s reading and listening group. It takes its name from Gertrude Stein’s 1914 book TenderButtons and focuses, in an informal and welcoming way, on texts from the worlds of art and literature, and selected musical works.   

For this session as part of the group exhibition Soft Impressions at DCA, we will be considering one of the artist’s selected books: English Magic by Uschi Gatward, a collection of short stories published in 2021.  

Digital copies of selected excerpts from the book will be sent out to all participants after they have booked a place.
