#CorkStreet Banner Commission 2024:
Cork Street Galleries is pleased to announce Sir #JohnAkomfrah as the artist for its Cork Street Galleries Banners Commission 2024, which will be unveiled on Cork Street for #LondonGalleryWeekend. Akomfrah’s new work, The Secret Life of Memorable Things (2024) follows on from the artist’s presentation at the Venice Biennale, Listening All Night To the Rain, commissioned by the British Council for the British Pavilion, and continues to investigate themes and motifs that explore memory and the personality (ties) of the object, in a new form. @Smoking_Dogs_Films

The commission comprises five lines of double-sided banners across Cork Street, with three banners per line and a total of 30 individual artworks, with one exhibition running from north to south of the street and another exhibition south to north.
