At home in Raglan, getting ready for Paris: These most recent works of Yaniv Janson address issues of inequality and the issue of housing. His work asks us to look at the how people feel about their living conditions and what kind of options are realistically available to all people to ensure that everyone has adequate housing.

DATE: Wednesday 18 October 2017, from 7pm
Round table: Featuring Yaniv Janson, Guillaume Dumas, Bernadette Grosyeux, Marie Girault and Annick Janson.
Yaniv’s art draws the viewer in through the use of vibrant colour and then while he has our attention, simultaneously addresses the social justice of inadequate housing and poverty.
