New acquisitions of work by Jamie Hawkesworth, Molly Goddard, Mawuena Kattah and Kehinde Wiley have been announced by V&A East as they shared plans for the opening of the V&A East Museum and V&A East Storehouse in Stratford’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
We are excited to see Mawuena Kattah’s work gaining recognition and look forward to seeing the work on display when V&A East opens in 2025.
‘Reflecting V&A East’s approach to collecting, new acquisitions destined for V&A East tell stories about contemporary creativity and motivations for making – whether as self-expression, creative experimentation or ways in which art, design and performance responds to broader social, cultural and environmental issues.’
You can find out more about V&A East on their website.
