Our fortieth anniversary exhibitions close in just four weeks! Don’t miss this chance to visit (or re-visit) Finding a Home at the Fry and Richard Bawden: the Hadleigh Years, curations we’ve so enjoyed presenting. Image: The Glass Bowl, etching, Richard Bawden #greatbardfieldartists #fryartgallery
Installation in progress…Richard Bawden, the Hadleigh Years opens on 26 July. A prolific and versatile artist, there’s such warmth, wit and keen observation to enjoy in Bawden’s post 1985 works.This special commemorative exhibition is curated in collaboration with Hattie Bawden #fryartgallery
Many of the artists championed by the Fry were talented muralists, working in Britain during a period of revival of the medium from the 1930s onwards. Kenneth Rowntree’s Mount Vernon mural, 1956, is a rare survivor now in the V&A collection #fryartgallery #twentiethcenturyart #greatbardfieldartists
Olga Lehmann enrolled at the Slade School in 1929 to study theatre design, making London and later Essex her home. An accomplished and prolific muralist, her training also led to Hollywood commissions. See this 1992 Los Angeles mural panel sketch in ‘Bardfield Murals’ until 13 July #fryartgallery
Mural study by Edward Bawden, 1951 is our Work of the Month. This preparatory sketch of ‘Country Life’ for the Lion and Unicorn Pavilion at the Festival of Britain is a recent addition to our collection - see it until 13 July in ‘Bardfield Murals’ #fryartgallery #saffronwalden #twentiethcenturyart
Is there a corner of your home where you go to read, write, create or just lose yourself in thought? The Attic Bedroom by Eric Ravilious, feels like such a place. We love the plants arranged around the camp-bed, making it an intimate space. Finding a Home at the Fry #fryartgallery #saffronwalden
Immensely proud of my husband @ianwolter.bsky.social whose latest public sculpture was unveiled by Ella Ravillious today!
Commissioned by the wonderful #FryArtGallery, it shows the #GreatBardfieldArtists who the gallery represents - see last pic for who’s who…
The Fry Art Gallery commissioned me to create an installation of my choice! - I made ‘Queue’: a celebration of this gem of a museum.
