Conversation in Colour

London City Island, the new creative and cultural neighbourhood on Leamouth Peninsula, will host a brand new exhibition for Frieze London. Curated by the Royal Society of Sculptors, the exhibition will showcase new specially commissioned, site-specific work from two of the UK’s most exciting contemporary artists. The exhibition marks The Line’s first collaboration with arebyte gallery and anticipates its long-term residency at London City Island as The Line extends its programme of outdoor sculpture to include the plinths at Botanic Square in spring 2019.

Conversation in Colour brings together painter, Paul Huxley RA and a young sculptor, Holly Rowan Hesson for the first time. While working in different media, they both use planes of colour to create visual riddles in their work. Huxley will create two new canvasses for the show which will be juxtaposed with installation work by Hesson. Visitors are invited to take part in the dialogue that is contained in the artists' work.

Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 October (only) The Line will be running a free boat service every 20 minutes (11.30-6.30pm) from The O2 QEII Pier at North Greenwich to Trinity Buoy Wharf Jubilee Pier (capacity 10 people). It’s then a 10 minute walk to arebyte gallery. NB. arebyte is accessible from Canning Town station (Jubilee Line) at all times.
