A forum for discussing the art, exhibitions and service at the Curwen Gallery
Living and working near the Dorset coastline Nicola Lord is spoilt for inspiration. Her mixed media paintings display a strong use of colour and playful compositions that balance between landscape and abstraction.
“I convey what I see and feel with paint and brush, exploring horizon lines and experimenting with elements such as boats and small buildings depicted as shapes on the landscape. Each painting evolves with time and seasonal change which dictates my palette from soft muted tones to hot hazy colours. I will never tire of such a diverse subject as it is a constant inspiration”.
Curwen & New Academy are ending the summer season with an exhibition of art from a wide variety of artists. The works in this show include many small scale paintings, prints and sculptures from the Curwen’s collection, some of which have not been exhibited for many years including Franta Belsky’s Sunbather (above). If you haven’t managed to get to one of the Curwen basement rummage parties yet, this show is a must see.
ENDS SATURDAY 25TH SEPTEMBER
