Champagne flowed as Southampton’s art world celebrated the
opening of the city’s medieval vaults as exhibition venues.
Five vaults, some of which date back to Norman times, will house
modern art and sculpture, which the public can view free for the
next three months as part of a two year project.
Artists on show include
Southampton’s Sarah Misselbrook, Michelle Aburrow
and David McDiarmid.
Ben Scott, from organiser a space, said: ‘We wanted to open platforms for
artists such as ourselves so Southampton can hold on to the highly skilled graduates
we are currently haemorrhaging.’
