While we continue to follow Public Health England’s guidance on the COVID-19 pandemic, in the interests of our employees, artists, partners and the public, on Friday 13 March, we decided to take further proactive and precautionary measures and postponed all our public programme until 27 March and adopted a remote working policy for staff. This was extended until at least 1 May, and will continue to be in place until Government restrictions are lifted.
In 2021, seven new site-specific artworks by seven international contemporary artists – Andreas Angelidakis, Mariana Castillo Deball, Holly Hendry, Jasleen Kaur, Katrina Palmer, Pilar Quinteros and Michael Rakowitz – will connect the coastlines of Essex, Kent and East Sussex. Cement Fields are working with Jasleen Kaur to create a new artwork for Gravesend.
