from St Andrews to St Ives

In association with the Barns-Graham Charitable Trust

The exhibition follows on from the artists successful London show at The Fleming Collection, London, and is a collaborative project in association with The Barns-Graham Charitable Trust.

Born in St. Andrews Wilhelmina Barns Graham attended Edinburgh College of Art, 1931 - 37. In 1940 she moved to St. Ives where she joined the Newlyn School and The St. Ives Society, becoming a founder member of the Penwith Society in 1949. During this period she became friends with Ben Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth, and Naum Gabo, becoming one of the foremost painters working in St Ives alongside Patrick Heron, Terry Frost and Roger Hilton. Between 1956 - 57 she taught at Leeds College of Art. From 1960 she divided her time between her homes in St. Ives and St. Andrews, affirming herself as much a Scottish as Cornish artist. She was completely dedicated to her art, with a drive and energy that sustained her for over sixty years.

She exhibited regularly with galleries throughout the UK, from the Downing Gallery in St Ives to the Pier Arts Centre in Stromness, Orkney. The first major retrospective exhibition of her work was the 1989-90 touring exhibition W. Barns-Graham Retrospective 1940-1989 from The City Art Centre, Edinburgh, travelling to Newlyn Art Gallery, Penzance.

Her work is to be found in all major public collections in the UK including the Tate Gallery, Arts Council and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art

Born in 1966 Maxwell Doig studied Fine Art at Manchester College of Art and at the Slade College, London. A lifelong friend of the internationally acclaimed artist David Blackburn, this exhibition focuses on Davids personal collection of Maxwells work, covering a period of 20 years. We are delighted that this exhibition will also include recent paintings by Maxwell, and several paintings by David Blackburn.

David Blackburn was born in Huddersfield in 1939 and studied at the Royal College of Art, London. Much of his career was spent working as a professor and artist in Australia and North America, with his work held in numerous public collections including the Museum of Modern Art, New York. His own private art collection which is being sold by Bonhams Auctioneers includes works by Samuel Palmer, Graham Sutherland, Prunella Clough, Norman Adams and others.
