Dreams of Here : Julian Bell, Tom Hammick and Andrzej Jackowski

18 Feb-10 Jun 2012

Brighton Museum & Art Gallery
Brighton BN1 1EE

Overview

A beautiful exhibition of new work by three contemporary painters and printmakers who are all nationally recognised but at the same time have strong connections to Sussex. Bell, Hammick and Jackowski each paint and draw figurative images, yet their contributions are markedly distinct. Brought together, the work of these painters follows the course of a journey from a land of literal description, through the layered subtleties of sensual perception into the buried landscapes of our subconscious worlds. In Dreams of Here, the here ranges from the Sussex landscape to inner worlds and regions, from colours that sing out to echoing empty spaces.
