SUMMARY:Richard Smith: Kites (on display at the Edge)
DESCRIPTION:Watch the Museum’s Director\, Chris Stephens\, give a tour of the exhibition. \n  \nRichard Smith was one of the most innovative and celebrated painters in Britain in the 1960s and 1970s. Seen as the father of Pop Art\, a mentor to numerous artists including David Hockney\, he repeatedly sought to reinvent the language of painting. This exhibition is timed to coincide with the publication of the first major book on the artist: Richard Smith: Artworks 1954–2013\, published by the Estate of Francis Bacon Publishing in association with Thames & Hudson \nSmith’s most innovative and ambitious paintings were initially made locally in the 1970s at his studio in the village of East Tytherton\, near Chippenham. With these\, Smith released the canvas from its stretcher to make loose\, unframed works that he dubbed Kites. The most dynamic of these were removed from the wall\, hanging instead from the ceiling above viewers’ heads. One of these¸ The Shuttle\, was first shown at Smith’s major retrospective exhibition at the Tate Gallery in 1975. Hanging 7 metres high and 9 metres long\, it must be one of the largest paintings ever made in the UK. We are excited to be presenting this major work to UK audiences for the first time since that important occasion. \nThe Edge is open from 11am to 4pm Wednesday to Saturday\, admission is free. \nDon’t miss Richard Smith: Intersections at Flowers Gallery from 16 November. \nWith the support of: \n         \nImage: Richard Smith The Shuttle\, 1975\, courtesy Flowers Gallery

SUMMARY:Holburne Open Joshua Donkor
DESCRIPTION:2022 I have more souls than one \n“People and stories are ultimately what influences my work\, this is why I often describe my practice as visual narration. A lot of the work I make is also deeply personal and stems from my family history\, particularly my Fathers upbringing our Ghanaian heritage.\nThe new body of work I’m currently developing seeks to explore transcultural and African Diasporic experiences in the Western world and how this is felt through the different generations of family.\nThis project stemmed from my most recent journey back to Ghana at the start of 2022 with my cousin.\nAs we have grown older our relationship with Ghana has continued to evolve. 2022 represented somewhat of a passing of the torch as my cousin was expected to take on more responsibilities within her family.\nThis brought into focus many questions about our relationship and connection to Ghana as members of the African Diaspora. Although we have grown up with many Ghanaian cultural influences within our lives\, unlike our parents and those before\, we have not grown up there.\nThis has led to a feeling of slight disconnection from our heritage\, felt most notably whenever we return.\nThese new portraits include a range of image transfer techniques which blend archival family images dating back decades with glimpses of the present taken from my most recent journey back to Ghana.\nThis acts as a representation of all the generations\, time periods and memories that have informed our past\, and which will continue to influence our future.” \nJoshua Donkor \nOpening times\nThe Gallery at the Edge\, University of Bath\, is free to enter and is open from Wednesday to Saturday 11am to 4pm.\nThe Edge will be closed from 2 to 5 June.\nAlso on show David Robertson

SUMMARY:Holburne Open David Robertson
DESCRIPTION:Suffering in Silence \nDavid Robertson’s immersive print installation explores the stigma around mental health and the difficulties men have in reaching out for help. Consisting of 25 life-sized men\, the figure is a self-portrait but is representative of any man. Formed of tally marks\, each mark representing an individual. Walking through the large-scale installation is a bewildering and disturbing experience. The figures surround and tower above you\, moving unpredictably. As your pathway through keeps shifting\, the weight of burden becomes apparent. David comments: ‘The prints were editioned three and a half years ago\, but it’s only now that I’ve been able to show them how it was originally conceived. I’m really excited that a print installation was selected for a white cube gallery.’ \nDuring his six-week residency at the Andrew Brownsword Gallery at the University of Bath until 18 June\, David will be working on a series of prints\, from his sketches documenting the changing landscape. Walking and drawing is an important part of David’s practice that he uses to maintain mental wellbeing. Insta: @multiple_of_one \nInstallation view: Suffering in Silence\, 2018. Woodcut\, each 2000 x 910 mm.

SUMMARY:Holburne Open Jack Lewdjaw
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to welcome Jack Lewdjaw  who is an artist and educator based in Bristol\, to Holburne Open. Over the next four weeks\, Jack will be exhibiting a series of works in the Andrew Brownsword Gallery on the University of Bath Campus\, as well as developing a series of new sculpture works live in the gallery (from the 8 of April). \n \nJack’s work is informed by his experiences working as a freelance graphic designer as well as his relationship to ideas around drawing in digital spaces. Recurring themes within his work include architectural and technological decay\, ruination\, and the architecture of public space from street view (particularly the vernacular design of shop fronts).\n \nWorks displayed include his ‘Border’ series (2019-2020) which incorporate border designs found within early editions of the Microsoft Word package\, and his ‘Digital drawings’ series (2022) which derive from experiments with digitally created gestural marks\, as the artist explores his relationship to drawing mediated through a computer and the clicks of a computer mouse. \n \nJack will also be working on a new series of sculptures in concrete as part of a residency in the space. The works are intended to explore a traditional process of casting concrete using a clay and wood box mould\, which Jack discovered through a British Pathe film (1960) about the method. The process was popularised by artists like William Mitchell with many concrete murals being executed in public spaces around the UK.\n \nThere will be a closing event\, with finalised sculptures\, on the 23 of April at 3pm. \n\nseam will also be displaying their work alongside Jack Lewdjaw. \nThe gallery is open from Wednesday to Saturday 11am to 3pm.

SUMMARY:Holburne Open seam collective
DESCRIPTION:seam is a contemporary textile collective of 14 emerging and established artists\, designers and researchers based in South West England.

SUMMARY:Holburne Open Gerry Eaton
DESCRIPTION:The series is called From Here to The Hawkstone and was made in 2020. I made repetitive walks from my home in rural West Oxfordshire to The Hawkstone – a Neolithic standing stone about a mile from my home. The work was made sequentially\, from foraged dyestuffs\,  each piece representing a month of the year. Along side each piece are my diary observations of each month. \nThe idea behind the project that I am working on is to investigate the area/ community where I live and then present my findings back to the community through art. I spent  several months researching last year and interviewing people who had worked on the land locally. I was lucky enough to interview a 95 year old land girl  who had come down to area  from Sheffield after the  blitz\, also a weaver from the local mill which closed 42 years ago. The local museum let me have a piece of tweed that was made at the mill which I am currently incorporating into some work. \nGERRY EATON
