Contemporary Art Engagement
Have you noticed that spending time in a museum makes you calm and focused? Have you often felt that looking at artworks, really looking, ignites a little fire in your brain? That discussing a topic with others gives you a sense of connection and wellbeing?
Then my contemporary art engagement program is for you.
An art engagement program using the artworks of our time, Sabine’s sessions are centred around the idea of object-based looking: taking time to be with each artwork to let its stories and our reactions unfold.
Upcoming Program:
Frieze Sculpture Tour
Wednesday 29th october, 3.00-4.30pm
£25,- per person
Meeting Point: Frieze London on Google maps (meet at the gate on Outer Circle opposite Park Square)
Join me on a tour where we will engage deeper with art: by looking mindfully, sharing personal impressions and reflecting on major themes in contemporary art. This year’s Frieze Sculpture curated by Fatos Üstek sets the artworks against the backdrop of nature. It includes thirteen incredible works by both emerging and internationally known artists, all around the theme of ‘Shadows’ - which can be interpreted materially but also symbolically: the shadows of the turbulent times we live in.

Artist Studio Visit: Mirceã Teleaga and Minyoung Choi
Saturday 1st November, 11-12.30
Meeting point: TBC (Hackney Wick)
£35,- per person
Join me on my next artist studio visit to Hackney Wick, a creative part of London with its graffitied canals and quirky cafés. We will visit the studios of Romanian-born Mirceã and South-Korean-born Minyoung, who met at the Slade School of Art. Both are starting to get traction in London and internationally, each with a very distinct painting language influenced by their backgrounds. There is nothing better than seeing the artist and their process close up!
Candice Lin: g/hosti at Whitechapel Gallery
Wednesday 26th November, 3.00-4.30pm
Meeting point: Whitechapel Gallery, 77-82 Whitechapel High Street, London E1 7QX£35,- per person
Join me on my next art tour where we will see and reflect on Candice Lin’s installation. Incredibly rich in detail. Her cardboard maze at first glance looks like a magical forest but soon turns into something more sinister, with phone screens suspended between the foliage showing scenes of violence, and animals displaying their savagery. American-born, LA based Lin was commissioned to make the work during university protests and the recent fires in her community in LA, but the installation transcends the local and the specific. What Lin’s labyrinth-like form so powerfully conveys is that there is no way to hide for us humans.
