Between February and March 2008, Chelsea Programme ran a series of talks entitled Chelsea Conversations.
The idea was to create a forum to discus issues exploring the ways in which institutions and arts organisations shape the landscape for visual artists, curators and other arts practitioners.
Topics in this series were Art Schools and the Market, Art Writing, Curatorial Independence and Black History Month and the Arts. Speakers included Lisa Lefeurve, JJ Charlesworth, Teresa Gleadowe and Bonnie Greer.
Below are a selection of pictures from this series -
