Join us at the Polar Museum for a free talk from the artist behind 'Polar Panoramas'

Tea & Talk with John Kelly: Antarctic Panoramas

Our current special exhibition, Polar Panoramas (https://www.spri.cam.ac.uk/museum/exhibitions/polarpanoramas/) features the art of John Kelly, an artist who has undertaken extensive fieldwork in the polar regions. Combining drawing, painting, photomontage and audiovisual work with observation and historical research, Polar Panoramas offers a compelling comparison between the Arctic and Antarctic as places of both human endeavour and environmental encounter.

Join us for a Tea & Talk with John where he'll discuss his time in the Arctic and the art it inspired. As part of the talk, we'll screen John's interview with the Polar Museum from the 'Big Freeze' exhibition from March 2021. We'll have time after the talk for questions and conversation, including in the gallery space.

Tea & Talks are designed for a non-academic audience and offers the chance to learn something new in a friendly environment. Bring along a notepad (or just an open mind) and join us for a cuppa.
