Together with White Cube, the SCC are pleased to offer an exclusive tour of their current exhibition, ‘Memory Palace’, followed by a drinks reception at White Cube Mason’s Yard on Wednesday 12 September.

Presented across White Cube’s London galleries, the exhibition features more than 90 works by over 40 artists and seeks to inspire reflections on the forms and themes of memory. The tour offers a closer look at some of the most outstanding artists of our time and will also be an opportunity to gain insight into White Cube’s future programme and upcoming museum shows supported by the gallery worldwide.

Memory Palace is the best-known mnemonic device among the 'arts of memory' expounded by ancient classical and Chinese scholars. In the technique, the subject mentally places the objects to be remembered along a path through a familiar location, recalling them by retracing the journey. The exhibition’s architecture leads the viewer through six aspects of memory: Historical (at White Cube Mason's Yard), Autobiographical, Traces, Transcription, Collective and Sensory (at White Cube Bermondsey).

We very much hope that you will be able to join us on this very special occasion!

Very limited availability. For booking and enquiries, please contact larsen@scc.org.uk 

Date: 12 September
Time: 18.30 – 21.00.
Venue: White Cube Mason’s Yard, 25 – 26 Mason's Yard, London SW1Y 6BU
