SUMMARY:Paradise Found: New Visions of the Blackdown Hills
DESCRIPTION:A contemporary interpretation by 36 painters\, printmakers and photographers walking in the footsteps of the Camden Town Group \nConceived and arranged by Tim Craven\, and co-curated by Sandra Higgins and Fiona McIntyre. \nBetween 1911 and 1925 the Blackdown Hills were a source of inspiration for members of the avant-garde painters of the Camden Town Group. They captured the ancient landscape and its particularity with the progressive French artistic approach of Cezanne\, Gauguin and Van Gogh. \n36 contemporary artists including past and present members of The London Group (previously the Camden Town Group) have recaptured the same sites that were painted by Spencer Gore\, Charles Ginner and Robert Bevan of the Camden Town Group. The contemporary works are exhibited alongside drawings and paintings (together with reproductions of paintings and photographs) created by Gore\, Ginner and Bevan. \nFrom the surreal\, abstracted\, expressionist and the hyper-real to the conceptual and post-modern\, the Blackdown subjects are a vehicle to survey and consider recent developments of drawing and painting in the British landscape tradition. \nThe exhibition provides a fascinating insight into the ecological\, social\, industrial and historic issues particular to the Blackdown Hills over the same 100 year period\, examining the values and characteristics which so attracted the Camden Town artists. \n\n18 March\, exhibition opening including talk about Stanislawa de Karlowska with Patrick Baty.\n15 April\, 10-1 ‘Pigments into Paint’ demo with Fiona McIntyre\, 3pm Curator’s Talk.\n12 May\, 3-4 ‘A Brush with Nature’ curator’s talk with Sandra Higgins\n13 May\, 10.30-3.30 ‘Walk & Talk’ with artist Luke M. Walker.\n3 June\, 3-4 ‘History of the Camden Town Group’ Closing Lecture with Tim Craven.\n\nThere are also some art workshops to complement the exhibition. \nFind out about the workshops and talks \nDownload Paradise Found workshop leaflet [PDF] \nThis project has been made possible through partnerships with the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Bevan family. \n
