Part Two: Bath to Avonmouth
1 August – 4 October
As the title suggests, this exhibition celebrates Jackson’s final
journey along the Avon from Bath to Avonmouth.
48 of the 68 paintings in the show are for sale. For all
sales enquiries please telephone 01225 477233 or email victoria_enquiries@bathnes.gov.uk
The complete body of work from source to mouth has taken Jackson
almost five
years to complete.
The viewer is once again offered Jackson’s fluent, dynamic and
inspiring depictions of life on the river. His unique working
method using various media takes us to secret stretches of the
riverbank in addition to well known landmarks. The results convey
the artist’s holistic approach to his life, art and
politics.
This exhibition, sponsored by Wessex Water, is accompanied by a
new hardback book featuring all of Kurt Jackson's River Avon
paintings. The book price £35 (plus £5 p&p), is available from
the Gallery shop.
