In quiet moments during the show Charlotte will be painting in the gallery and will be happy to chat about her mindful\, meditative working methods\, which are grounded in healing and self-expression. \nIn the adjoining room\, you will also find the exhibition Chasing Light (Venue 9 in the FarOpen Studios Art Trail)\, which showcases works by Di Weissberg\, Grace Engel\, Jo Rockley\, Shanna Ludwig\, Steve Zimmerman and Neski Ceramics.

SUMMARY:DRAW LARGE EXHIBITION all drawings start with a mark
DESCRIPTION:The Draw Large initiative offered a number of mini-residencies for artists to expand their practice by working on a large-scale drawing\, supporting them to create new work during the dark days of winter. Jackson’s Art Supplies donated rolls of paper\, so each artist was given a 1.5 metre square of Fabriano and free rein to experiment\, network and draw on a scale that their home studios might not accommodate. \nThis brief but beautiful exhibition is open for only one week – 25th February – 1st March 11am-4pm. \nOn the final day (Saturday 1st March) you are invited to join the artists to discuss the project and their work. 2-4pm \nWe’ve had great feedback on this pilot and hope this professional development for artists can continue and become a regular occurrence in The George. \nParticipating artist Grace Engel said “Draw Large has been a great opportunity to take on a challenge\, network with other artists\, stretch my creative comfort zone and work alongside others in a beautiful studio space.” \nThe artists come from a range of art practices\, including glass making\, video and sculpture\, as well as printmakers and other visual art media. They are: Ali Roe\, Carolyn Black\, Cherry Lyne\, Chris Comins\, Claire Sibley\, Dorota Rapacz\, Grace Engel\, Jacqui Grange\, Laura Liddell\, Pat Homewood\, Sharon Foley\, Steph Boocock\, Sue Chudley & Wendy Rhodes.

SUMMARY:When Modern Art Came to Gloucestershire – An Illustrated Talk by Lee Beard\, Thursday 19 December\, 7.30 pm
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This talk was first given at The George in April of this year and is being repeated by popular demand. Admission is free\, but advance booking is advised. Please reserve your seat(s) using the ticket form below. \nIn May 1938 the exhibition ‘Realism and Surrealism: Several Phases of Contemporary Art’ opened at the Guildhall\, Gloucester. Among the 126 paintings and sculptures on display were artworks by some of the century’s most acclaimed modern artists including Salvador Dalí\, Paul Klee and René Magritte. \nThe British artist Paul Nash\, who had met Picasso in Paris a decade earlier\, was at this time actively involved in the promotion of Surrealist art in Britain. For Nash this was an artistic approach that corresponded with his own distinct renderings of the English landscape as a psychological space. In the late 1930s\, Nash became a regular visitor to Gloucestershire\, leading to a series of paintings\, drawings\, and photographs depicting the region. The Forest of Dean in particular provided a rich source of inspiration for him. \nIn this illustrated talk\, art historian Lee Beard reveals how for a brief period an exhibition in Gloucester connected the city to some of the most notable artistic and political events of the time\, not least the rise of fascism across Europe. As Herbert Read would explain in the foreword to the Gloucester show\, in an age of unrest\, it was inevitable that this was to be reflected in the forms of painting and sculpture on display. \nDr Lee Beard is an art historian\, writer\, teacher and curator. He is a recognised authority on the work of Ben Nicholson (1894-1982) and has published widely on modern art in Britain during the early 20th century.

SUMMARY:All Creatures Tiny & Tall
DESCRIPTION:The George Gallery is delighted they shall be opening a new exhibition hot on the heels of the fascinating and beautiful show “The Plight of Eels” by Julia Manning (March 20th-6th April). Julia’s works are complex layers of relief print processes\, stencils and patterns\, telling the stories of their precarious lives that are affected by human activity. \n“All Creatures Tiny & Tall” opens on 11th April-27th April 10.30am-4pm Tuesday through to Saturday (Closed Sundays and Mondays).  Expect a showcase of a glorious range of artist styles\, mediums\, animals and insects. \nThe exhibitors responded to an Open Call and the artists interested in participating have works on display. The images present a wide range of creatures\, from dogs to horses\, jellyfish to insects. \nWe believe that all artists need support to put their works into the world\, whether they are established or new to exhibiting. By being involved in a show like this in a Community Hub\, you learn as you go about the process of creating exhibitions. The George Gallery gives artists an opportunity to show their work\, and visitors will be able to meet them on Saturday 13th April in the gallery. We can’t guarantee all 20 artists will be in the gallery all day\, but do call in and say hello. The artists will also be stewarding throughout the exhibition period\, so you get another opportunity to meet them during your visit. \nExhibitions are free to enter and both framed and unframed works for sale. You will find information about all the artists inside the gallery.
