Riflemaker Contemporary Art, 79 Beak Street, Soho, W1F 9SU
How Much:
Free!
Wow! This sounds pretty cool. Riflemaker has somehow got hold of the personal files and folders of massively influential Beat poet/novelist/artist/performer fellow William S. Burroughs.
When he used to note down all his ideas, Burroughs filed them in loads of folders that he also doodled all over in ink and gouache.
This winter these are on display in the gallery and promise to provide a fascinating insight into Burroughs' creative thought-processes.
Until 17.01.09.
