Happy New Year and welcome to the latest edition of The London Group newsletter.
We have two historical articles reflecting on the activities and sacrifices of the Group during the first world war. Our provocative new members' show Povera is appraised. Annie Johns LG takes over our online exhibition space 'The Gallery', and we look at 26 members' diverse studio setups. A new series on artist obsessions is kickstarted with Pixels and Gasometers. Finally, congratulations to Susan Haire PLG who was included on Artlyst's Alt Power 100 celebrating art professionals who made a difference in 2018.
As usual the newsletter lists upcoming shows in what promises to be another eventful year for us all.
