Olla Podrida

Bill Stewart, Zara Idelson, Joff Winterhart, Myrtle Glanville and Madeline Rolt

Olla Podrida: any dish containing a great variety of ingredients.

This exhibition  contains  work by artists who are all great in their own right but very different. So the idea of exhibiting them together - instead of creating a themed show or finding a group of artist's with similarities - is about looking for the kinds of differences that might show these individuals  in a new light.

Don't Look Now

Janet Sainsbury

Don’t Look Now

A new series of oil paintings examining the often complex relationship between the muse and artist. Anthropomorphic coastal rock formations provide a dramatic presence, influencing the dynamics and connections between the characters. Unstable, finely balanced rocks threaten to topple and erode the landscape and change the narrative.

On Saturday April 30 from 2 - 4pm Janet... more
