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.
