Overview
Discover the dreamlike world of Anne Rothenstein’s collages and paintings, in this first solo showcase of her work in a UK institution.
Rothenstein’s work transports viewers into a space where colour and form intertwine with everyday objects and landscapes to create profound emotional scenes. Using delicate layers of oil paint washes, Rothenstein builds a distinctive palette, layering her compositions with a luminous quality of depth and texture.
Drawing inspiration from found imagery, personal experiences, and memories, Rothenstein’s intuitive paintings leave viewers curious. Where is this place? Who are the characters and what are their intentions?
