Land Marks
2024
Land Marks, organised by MA Art Museum and Gallery students, explores our relationship to the natural environment through a curated collection of landscape art from the 1960s to today. It features a new film made by students after a research trip to my village, a display and particpatory activity using Wanna meet me Half Way and the drawings Eulogy to those who lost their lives at sea.
Over five thematic sections: Co-existence, Fragility, Memory, Reclamation and Conflict, the exhibition asks us to consider how we have shaped the landscape, and in return how the landscape leaves its mark on us.
Land Marks includes works by:
Peter Berrisford, Peter Blake, Boyd and Evans, Reg Cartwright, Jenny Cook, Matthew Cook, P J Crook, Heather Deedman, Arabella Dorman, Terry Frost, Kate Genever, Andrew Scott George, Rigby Graham, Fay Godwin, Claire Halifax, Paul Hill, Albert Houtheuesen, Anita Klein, Ian McDonald, William McQuitty, Paul Nash, Margaret Norton, Alan Reynolds, Bridget Riley, Peter Sumpter, Ken Symonds, Laetitia Yhap.
