As a huge admirer of Grayson Perry - the man as well as his art - I was interested to read an interview with him, published in the winter issue of The Arts Society magazine (published three times a year by The Arts Society - formerly NADFAS - and circulated to its membership). As regular readers will be aware, I commented in an earlier issue of The Artist on how inspired I was by his Channel 4 series Grayson’s Art Club, broadcast during the first lockdown and presented by Grayson with his wife, author and psychologist Philippa Perry. The series attracted over a million viewers and thousands responded to his call for submissions of artwork to the club’s exhibition. These were amusing, clever, often unexpected and heart-warming. I was delighted to learn that Series 2 is promised for 2021, which can’t come soon enough.
