I am an artist and for ages have been looking to find a group focussed on conceptual art, but can't find anything so thought i would set up one myself. This group is for anyone with an interest in art or anything. You don't have to be Tracey Emin or Benjamin Buchloh, just passionate and into the alternative. I am also interested in starting collaborative projects and organizing some events, so hopefully these meet ups will set the ball rolling.

We are ordinary people who ask extraordinary questions, such as 'Who am I?' and 'What is my purpose in the world?' We meet one evening each week in three ten-weekly terms and spend the evening seeking answers in Eastern and Western philosophies, mostly Advaita Vedanta and Plato. So if you enjoy discussing deep things with people of like mind, and practising spiritual exercises to bring peace to our busy days, do join us.
