Contemporary Argentine Art Comes to the Henley Festival

101 works of art by contemporary Argentine artists are on show at the Henley Festival next week (July 11-15). The works, by 12 artists living and working in Britain and Europe, are part of a major attraction at the 25th Anniversary Festival.

The exhibition is supported by the Anglo-Argentine Society, which was founded in London in 1948.

Said Alexandra Daniell, Chairman of the Society, "Traditionally Argentine artists have looked to Europe for their inspiration. So, given Britain's pole position in the world of contemporary art, it is not surprising that so many are living and working here today and giving us such a wealth of talent to draw on."

Added Sole Nasi, Curator of the Exhibition, "I have set out to follow the traditions of the Henley Festival by showcasing the exhibition in an entertaining and engaging way, but always hoping to surprise."

Entrance to the Henley festival is by ticket only except on Sunday 15 July when there is free access to all areas for the Family Art Event .between 11.30am and 2.00pm.
