Simon Oldfield is pleased to present Courtship of the Peoples; a large group exhibition of works on paper that explore the pursuit of affection and the idea of personal correspondence. The exhibition begins by inviting a group of artists who in turn propose one other artist with whom they would like to invite to exhibit alongside; creating a visual dialogue.
It is the second in a series of large group exhibitions at Simon Oldfield which began in 2011 with Friendship of the Peoples, co-curated with Tim Ellis.
