Walking Out
Huddersfield Art Gallery April - June 2009 The first of 6 Dialogues between contemporary artists and the Huddersfield collections
Selecting paintings and drawings from the Art Gallery's landscape collection (Gainsborough and Constable to the Boyle Family via Paul Nash and Jack Yeats) I attempted to trace the evolution of the figure in the landscape, an evolution that adds up to a history of walking.
This rehang was complemented by 1 audio, 1 text and 3 video works of my own on themes in landscape history: the Walker, the Labyrinth and the View.
