Ravilious Woodcuts

18 June – 30 August

The foremost wood engraver of his time, Ravilious came to prominence working in this medium before becoming well known as painter. Heavily influenced by English Romanticism his work has a deep connection with the East Sussex landscape. This exhibition runs alongside a major Ravilious retrospective at Towner and draws from both the Towner’s collection and works on loan to present a detailed look at these highly respected woodcuts.

In partnership with Towner

Quentin Bell – Illustrator

10 September – 31 October

Art historian, biographer, painter, potter and sculptor, Quentin Bell was certainly a man of many arts. As we celebrate the centenary of his birth, this exhibition will focus on a very intimate side of his prodigious output; the illustrations he produced for his close family. At the heart of this theme are his illuminated children's books; complete fantastical worlds captured in word and image to the delight of his children and nieces.
