Exhibition - 'Skyscapes' from the Permanent Collection
16th June - 27th July
Studio Gallery 6
The studio will be filled with all kinds of works that feature the sky as an important component of the picture.
It is not an easy task for the artist to decide how to interpret the sky in relation to other parts of a landscape or seascape. Colours are constantly variable, light comes and goes, clouds and shadows shift. Or the sky may be a ground which holds together a myriad images nearer the viewer.
Come and see!

Illustrated Talk by Antony Penrose - 'Roland Penrose and the British Surrealists'
Saturday 22nd September at 2.00pm.
Studio Gallery 6
After returning to London from Paris in 1936, Roland introduced Surrealism to an incredulous and hostile British public.
Reviled and ridiculed at the time, and beset with internal quarrels, the movement made a truly lasting impact on the arts in Britain.
The speaker is the son of Roland Penrose and the photographer Lee Miller, who took the photograph here of Roland in Paris.
We are delighted to welcome Antony back again to the Gallery and this promises to be an absorbing and illuminating occasion.
Please purchase your ticket from the Rye Arts Festival Box Office - £12.
