Guest Tour: Dr. Timotheus Vermeulen

Join us for a special tour of the Zabludowicz Collection: 20 Years exhibition. Dr. Timotheus Vermeulen has created a fictional traveller to lead your journey around the show. Performed by Alan Fielden, this intergalactic character will consider the show as a cosmos in and of itself and use this alien environment to explore ideas of dischronicity, adventure and depth in contemporary art.

This event has been devised by Dr. Timotheus Vermeulen to accompany the launch of his essay Snap!, one of a series of texts commissioned for the Zabludowicz Collection: 20 Years exhibition. Each essay will be released as a free PDF download from the website.
