Join Grayson Perry as he discusses Delusions of Grandeur, his most ambitious exhibition to date. From richly detailed ceramics to vibrant tapestries, Perry’s work challenges notions of artistic value and tradition. In conversation with Dr Xavier Bray, the Turner Prize-winning artist will introduce his new work and how this draws from the Collection’s masterpieces, weaving connections between past and present.

Following the discussion, Perry will sign copies of the accompanying exhibition catalogue, which can be purchased on the night. Guests can also enjoy drinks and the opportunity to visit Grayson Perry: Delusions of Grandeur after hours.
