Vito Acconci

In autumn 1969, Vito Acconci embarked on an unusual artistic pursuit in New York City. He chose people at random on the streets and followed them, continuing until they entered a building.

The Beads of Gresham Street

A speculative walk through the historic City of London led by a collection of glass beads that spark narratives not just of the Roman bead workshop excavated nearby, but the history of craftmanship, material and trade in the area. By combining walking art with traditional crafted objects Katy Gillam-Hull creates new tactile ways to encounter material, time and place, a kind of material time travel.
