All Things Considered

The RE Annual
Posted by Angie Lewin

We were pleased to make it to the recent opening of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers’ Annual Exhibition - one of the busiest ever - showcasing the broad range of RE members’ work from the smallest of wood engravings to substantial screen prints and etchings.

A favourite of mine is ‘Metroland’, a linocut of a London tube train carriage, echoing the work of Cyril Power, by Gail Brodholt.

Also launched on the evening was ‘Printmakers’Secrets’ by Anthony Dyson VPRE (A&C Black) which offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the unique working practice of individual printmakers.

The exhibition runs until 7th June. Open daily 11-6. For full details see www.banksidegallery.com
