Kate Bryan: How to Art

Kate Bryan is a self-confessed art addict who has worked with art for over twenty years. But before she studied art history at university, she’d been into a gallery just twice in her life and had no idea she was entering an elitist world.

Now, she’s on a mission to help everybody come to art. Like playing or listening to music, or cooking and eating great food, reading or watching films, making art or looking at other people’s deserves to be an enriching part of all our lives.

How to Art is a nifty way to take art on your own terms. From where it is to what it is, to tips on how to actually enjoy really famous artworks like the Mona Lisa, to how to own art and make art at home, through to vital advice for making a career as an artist and even how to make your dog more cultural, How to Art gives art to everyone, and makes it fun. Laced throughout with original artworks by the very down-to-earth artist David Shrigley.

Kate Bryan is a British art historian, curator and arts broadcaster. Since 2016, she has been the curator for Soho House’s global art collection which numbers 10,000 artworks. For over a decade she has regularly presented television programmes for Sky Arts including “My Week With” and is a judge on Sky Arts Portrait and Landscape Artist of The Year. This is Kate’s third book and her first for a mainstream audience.

This event will take place in Westlands Ballroom.
