Throughout August the South London Gallery will become a 'laboratory' for the production and appreciation of art through debates, artist-led discussions and workshops that respond to Perfectly Placed, an exhibition of specially commissioned work inspired by south London. The commissions and the accompanying debates, discussions and workshops were funded by the Contemporary Art Society Special Collection Scheme with funds from the Arts Council Lottery.

Victorian forgery, academic parody and satire at the local leisure centre are among the themes explored by the five artists included in Perfectly Placed. Visitors are invited to participate in, or simply enjoy viewing, the practical and discussion based activities that will be hosted within the exhibition space.

Perfectly Placed will form a self-contained exhibition that following it's showing at the SLG will tour to schools and community venues in the local area. It will provide a context for dialogue and engagement about contemporary art and its cultural relevance, revealing how artists explore the notion of place. Perfectly Placed is funded by the Contemporary Art Society Special Collection Scheme with funds from the Arts Council Lottery. Adam Chodzko's commission received additional support from St Martins College of Art and leading law firm, Denton Wilde Sapte, (Contact Kate Lee, Real Estate Sector Manager, Denton Wilde Sapte, T. 020 7320 6206). The summer workshops for young people, aged 13-19, are supported by Positive Activities for Young People (PAYP).
