Blackfriars Gallery provides meeting place where visitors and students may engage works of art not simply as objects on display but as a catalysts for conversation – between artist and viewer; between the subject matter and the academy; and between the Human and the Divine.
Blackfriars Gallery is committed to the presentation of quality art as a means to generate dialogue between our DSPT community and contemporary culture.
