Featuring a carefully curated balance of abstract and semi-abstract works, ‘Beyond Form’ is a captivating new exhibition, that brings together the diverse talents of five established artists: John Croft CBE, John Taylor, Julia Cooper, and a selection of works on paper by the celebrated Modern British artists, Barbara Hepworth and Howard Hodgkin RA.
This exhibition showcases the distinct styles and creative visions of each artist, united by their fascination with exploring form. John Croft’s abstract paintings burst with vibrant colours and dynamic energy, relating to coastal landscape, while Julia Cooper's semi-abstract works evoke the ever-changing moods of the sea. Paintings by John Taylor play with favourite themes of geometry and subtle colour.
Complementing these contemporary pieces are a selection of works on paper by the pioneering abstract sculptor Barbara Hepworth and the expressive painter Howard Hodgkin RA. Hepworth's intricate drawings and Hodgkin's bold, colourful prints add depth and context to the exhibition, highlighting the innovative spirit of British art.
"Beyond Form" is a must-see for anyone drawn to the emotive power of abstract and semi-abstract art. The exhibition offers a captivating journey along the Cornish coast, where the boundaries between land, sea, and sky blur and inspire.
