The Hereford Salon was inaugurated in 1993 with the objective of providing an informal environment in which artists could discuss their work in progress. The salon is concerned with the relationship between artists and the multitude of intermediaries who separate them from the public and each other. We are especially interested in how to help artists communicate and cooperate among themselves.
The original salon was our living room at Hereford Road in central London. Since then we have held the salon in several other locations. We continue to bring artists together to discuss work in progress. The web site has become a growing resource to archive the various exhibitions, dialogues and performances that have occurred.
