Grayson Perry Cocktail Party, 1989 at York Art Gallery, from May 28 to September 5
A major exhibition featuring early works by Grayson Perry, made between 1982 and 1994, will open at York Art Gallery on May 28. The touring exhibition, developed by the Holburne Museum in Bath will re-introduce 70 works made by the artist during this time. ‘This show has been such a joy to put together,’ writes Grayson. ‘I am really looking forward to seeing these early works again, many of which I have not seen since the eighties. It is as near as I will ever get to meeting myself as a young man, an angrier, priapic me with a huge energy but a much smaller wardrobe.’
