'Paintings 1982-89' - Andrzej Jacowski

Friday, September 08, 1989 to Saturday, November 04, 1989 

Andrzej Jackowski makes paintings of great beauty that have also profound depth. Recurring images appear: the hut on wheels, the upturned boat, the boat that contains a landscape within it, giant heads on their side, the ‘Brides’ series, with their emphasis on the female spirituality.

‘From the Belly of the Whale: Biblical Imagery' - Albert Herbert

Friday, May 26, 1989 to Saturday, July 08, 1989 

During the 60’s and 70’s Herbert was involved with the avant garde but became uneasy about being, as he perceived it deliberately obscure. To escape from the confines of ‘art’ or impersonal self- expression he chose as subject matter universally recognised Biblical stories.

‘Modern Times: Paintings 1979-1989' - Clyde Hopkins

Friday, May 26, 1989 to Saturday, July 08, 1989 

Clyde Hopkins has exhibited in many major one person and group shows since his emergence as one of Britain’s most interesting abstract painters in the late 1970’s.

'English Cathedrals: Drawings' - Dennis Creffield

Thursday, January 05, 1989 to Sunday, February 12, 1989 

In 1987 the South Bank Board commissioned the painter Dennis Creffield to draw all 26 medieval cathedrals of England. From February until November 1987 Creffield travelled more than 10,000 miles in a motor caravan, drawing in all weathers, and rising early to avoid the tourists.
