Cork Street marks its centenary by featuring a collective show from 15 galleries, inspired by Jean Cocteau’s artwork, La peur donnant des ailes au courage. This work, deemed obscene by authorities in 1938, was installed out of public view thanks to efforts from Peggy Guggenheim and Marcel Duchamp. The current exhibitions honor Cocteau's creative spirit and Guggenheim's advocacy for the arts amid societal pressures. Numerous exhibitions highlight themes of defiance and resistance, demonstrating a renewed collaborative spirit among galleries, reflecting the resilience of the art market.
"The group show celebrates the centenary of Cork Street, showcasing 15 galleries inspired by Jean Cocteau's controversial artwork, which faced censorship in the past."},{
