Southampton’s John Hansard Gallery has a new home in a brand new building in the city’s ‘Cultural Quarter’ and its first major show is a Gerhard Richter retrospective that draws extensively from the Artist Rooms collection. Fisun Güner is impressed by the art, ambition, and some of the architecture.
Emerging activity in the city’s medieval gateways, towers and vaults complements Southampton’s new Cultural Quarter development.
Woodrow Kernohan, director and CEO of Ireland’s biennial of contemporary art, is to succeed Stephen Foster as director of the John Hansard Gallery as it relocates to a new £28.5m arts venue.
