SUMMARY:Tony Snowden: Out of the Rain
DESCRIPTION:People in Everyday Places \nAs an art student in the 1980’s Tony was influenced by the paintings of the early Italian renaissance; Giotto\, Simone Martini\, Duccio\, Bellini etc\, and by early Indian painting. The simplification and manipulation of form and space used to integrate the figure within an intimate space to produce an image loaded with poetic suggestions and a rich sumptuous atmosphere; the rendering of what is sometimes referred to as a ‘celestial reality’ this is what captured his imagination. Around the same time\, reading the poetry of Blake\, Yeats and T S Eliot and his idea of the eternal moment\, linked in with the same feeling which began to tie his paintings together – a kind of moment suspended between memory and dream.\nOriginally making ‘on the spot’ drawings of everyday life\, Tony’s paintings develop through the use of memory – trying to capture the essence of a scene from the old streets of Beverley\, usually drawn at night or early morning. He aims to produce something that is more than a physical description of the place; a still moment that transfigures the everyday into the realm of the mystic and yet remains firmly grounded within the ‘everyday’. \n

SUMMARY:Boyes Golden Values! Art\, Jewellery and the Everyday
DESCRIPTION:Boyes Golden Values is an exhibition explores the relationship between sculpture and art jewellery\, and the relationship between art and everyday objects. \nIn 1969\, the sculptors Alfred Gruber and Jacqueline Stieger left their home in Switzerland and settled in East Yorkshire. Gruber had worked with Hans Arp and had exhibited his art jewellery alongside Calder and Picasso. When the couple arrived in Yorkshire\, they established a studio and foundry and began creating art jewellery\, using both traditional and innovative casting techniques. \nLike many artists working in the ‘50s and ‘60s\, Gruber and Stieger were inspired by everyday objects and modern materials. Using the transformational properties of casting\, they began creating a vast range of sculptural objects in metal\, which included a pair of bronze jeans. Plastic tablecloths\, cotton dishcloths\, textured fabric\, chocolate wrapping paper and even fishing line were all transformed into bronze\, silver or gold. They found inspiration and materials at their local Boyes store – a veritable Aladdin’s Cave on Hessle Road in Hull. \nSadly\, Gruber died in 1972 but thankfully Stieger continued to work and went from strength-to-strength and went on to establish an international reputation for her highly distinctive work. \nThe ‘Boyes Golden Values’ project was motivated by a desire to share those skills with two younger jewellers working in the region – Nicola Fidell Chapman and Victoria Prince\, founders of the Oresome Gallery\, Hull. Through a series of creative workshops\, Nicola and Victoria were given the opportunity to work with Stieger and explore creative sculptural processes that have broadened their artistic range.\nThe creative journey of all three artists has been documented by the freelance art historian and curator\, Dr Gerardine Mulcahy-Parker (founder of The Exhibitours) and the ‘story-telling’ photographer\, Nigel Walker. \n
