Lara Wardle of Jerwood Foundation, in conversation with James Rawlin

  • Riverside Lecture Theatre Duke Street Norwich Norfolk (map)

Lara Wardle (Executive Director, Jerwood Foundation) will be speaking about the history and work of Jerwood Foundation as well as her role as Curator of Jerwood Collection of 20th and 21st century British art.

She will be joined by James Rawlin (J&J Rawlin Art Advisory, previously Head of Modern and Post-War British art at Sotheby’s) for a discussion about the development of the market for 20th Century British Art and how this impacts collectors, new and old.

As a family of philanthropic organisations: Jerwood Foundation, Jerwood Arts, Jerwood Space and Jerwood Collection, Jerwood’s aim is to be relevant, imaginative and responsive in its support of the visual and performing arts in the UK.

Whether working independently or through strategic partnerships with other arts organisations, trusts, foundations or Arts Council England, the remit of the members of the Jerwood family is to foster the creation of the best art possible by meeting the current and fundamental needs of artists.

Unfettered and without bureaucracy, Jerwood has created its own culture of arts philanthropy - private, independent, opportunistic and entrepreneurial. It is these characteristics that underpin Jerwood’s imaginative and responsive support for artists.
