Artist-led Tour of Mythic Time / Hundreds of Thousands of Rememberings (11 October, 11.30am - 12.30pm)

Join artist Lina Iris Viktor for an exclusive tour of tour of our current exhibition, Mythic Time / Hundreds of Thousands of Rememberings, which unearths connections across time and cultures, from ancient Egypt to medieval illumination and indigenous Australian art.

These exclusive tours offer the opportunity to hear Viktor discussing her works in the uniquely designed spaces of Soane's home and Museum at Lincolns Inn Fields, with Viktor's work connecting to and contrasting with the Antique and Neo-Classical works collected by Soane. 

About the event

Please convene in the Library-Dining Room on the ground floor of the Museum shortly before 11.30am. It is often necessary to queue for access to the Museum, so please leave plenty of time to make it inside for the tour start time.
