TURNER CONTEMPORARY (UK) TO HOST EXHIBITION OF ARTWORKS FROM ACCLAIMED BBC SERIES EXTRAORDINARY PORTRAITS

One of the UK’s leading art galleries, The Turner Contemporary Margate, will host an exhibition of work from the acclaimed BBC series Extraordinary Portraits. 

Extraordinary Portraits sees musician and passionate collector of art Tinie (formerly known as Tinie Tempah) match members of the public with extraordinary stories to a selection of distinctive and celebrated portrait artists. The artists are then challenged to turn these personal and powerful experiences into compelling portraits- celebrating modern Britain in all its glory.

Nav Raman, Executive producer for Chatterbox says, “The Turner Contemporary celebrates Margate’s connection with J.M.W.Turner, who used to visit the area to capture the incredible sunsets you can see from the gallery.  He, like us, believed that art could be an agent of change.”

The exhibition will be free and open to the public from Wednesday 7th September - until Sunday 23rd October.

CHRISTY LEE ROGERS ON PRIME TIME BBC ONE SERIES "EXTRAORDINARY PORTRAITS", WITH 30 MINUTE EPISODE HOSTED BY UK RAPPER TINIE TEMPAH - SUNDAY, MARCH 6, 2002 at 6:30pm

Tinie Tempah puts modern heroes in portrait focus for BBC series

As one of society’s oldest art forms, portraiture was traditionally used to convey the power, importance and even wealth of a sitter. Now, one of Britain’s most successful rappers wants to help “change the narrative” around the art form – by shining a spotlight on contemporary heroes instead.

In a new six-part series for the BBC, Tinie Tempah, who has had seven No 1 singles in the UK, will match members of the public with “extraordinary stories” to a selection of celebrated portrait artists who will then capture their likeness.

Episode two: Christy Lee Rogers and Cee Cee

Celebrated international photographer Christy Lee Rogers helps Cee Cee, a model with albinism, on her journey from self-proclaimed "ugly duckling" to elegant swan, as she shares her struggles with how she is perceived by the outside world and her own self-belief. Christy helps Cee Cee to love herself as she is and find the natural beauty she hid for so many years in a breathtaking underwater photoshoot.
