GSK Contemporary
The Royal Academy has launched a three-month series of exhibits and events in a new space to showcase experimental art. The program, which runs until January 19, is split into two parts: Molten States, an exploration of art and experimental theatre, and Collision Course, which includes an ode to William S. Burroughs, including never-before-seen film footage. During both shows, regular discussions, film series and performances will be held and exhibit spaces will display sculptural installations by avant-garde London-based artists such as Georgina Starr and Plastique Fantastique and works by Maya Roos, Antony Micallef and Toadball TV among others. Opens Sunday and Monday at noon to 10 p.m.; Tuesday and Wednesday noon to 6 p.m.; Thursday, Friday and Saturday noon to midnight.
Be sure to stop by Flash, the pop-up restaurant from Bistrothèque.
Intelligence Squared
Intellectual heavyweights might want to look into this series of monthly high-profile debates which are invariably sold out months in advance. The debates are always on crucial issues of the day with prominent speakers and unlike parliament, the discussion is exciting, witty and the seats are comfortable. Held at the Royal Geographical Society in Kensington tickets costs $40. Past topics have included “Let’s Legalise Cocaine,” “Prison Works” and “We’d be better off without religion.”
