Taking Place - The Gallery at Foyles, London (2020)
Producer for Anthony Luvera - Supported by FutureCity
The Gallery at Foyles is a cultural space on the fifth floor of Foyles bookshop on Charing Cross Road, curated and managed by cultural placemaking agency FutureCity.
"Taking Place" brought together two bodies of work by Anthony Luvera, Assembly (2013-2014) and Frequently Asked Questions (2014-2020), to examine the scale and complexity of the homelessness crisis in Britain, uniting collaborative portraiture with a striking installation presenting responses from 110 local authorities on services available to people experiencing homelessness, 41 of whom did not answer at all. Produced in association with Museum of Homelessness and supported by Coventry University, the exhibition ran from January to February 2020, accompanied by a full day of talks on homelessness and housing justice. As producer, I contributed across many dimensions of the project: communicating with local authorities, amassing data, supporting the development of the accompanying publication, and supervising delivery of the exhibition and its public programme.
