What a great message - how art on campus (and university art collections) can enrich the lives of students and the public!
Looking forward to giving a talk tonight about @ArtAtYork and why art on campus can enrich and transform the lives of students as well as the public! The talk is free and open to all, plus it’s a good excuse to spend Monday evening at a pub😉 #UoYArt @AngelOnTheGreen @UniOfYork

We enjoyed poring over this plan in the archive recently… fascinating uncovering more about David Bomberg’s time teaching @LSBU
For #ArchiveMystery here is a recent one - where did David Bomberg teach? One record says room 465 in the Borough Road Building, but that’s currently a store-room! This plan has the answer, it’s the “existing art room” at the bottom of the plan before a layout change #Archive30

Greatly enjoyed Action, Gesture, Paint: Women Artists and Global Abstraction 1940-70 @_TheWhitechapel Highlights: #Frankenthaler & #SandraBlow for their sheer power + excitement seeing #LilianHolt, wife of #DavidBomberg & deserving of much more appreciation in her own right!

Leon Kossoff studied with David Bomberg @LSBU in the early 1950s. Kossoff said: ‘it was through my contact with Bomberg that I felt I might actually function as a painter. Coming to Bomberg’s classes felt like coming home.’ Check out Kossoff’s work👇on show now @_art_on_sea
The exhibition catalogues are here. Soutine I Kossoff opens this Saturday 1 April. Soutine I Kossoff is the first-ever museum exhibition to explore the artistic relationship between artist #LeonKossoff (1926-2019) and painter #ChaimSoutine (1893-1943). hastingscontemporary.org/eve…
