We have arranged with Imogen Holmes-Roe, curator of the current Turner: In Light and Shade exhibition, a special Friends tour of this highly acclaimed exhibition. To enjoy the tour, places have been limited to 20 each tour and there are two dates available: 20 May and 17 June.
This tour booking is for 20 May at 10.30am.
Marking the 250th anniversary of his birth, this exhibition will explore the work and technique of legendary British landscape artist J.M.W Turner.
J.M.W Turner (1775–1851) remains one of Britain’s most renowned landscape painters whose work continues to inspire generations of artists. This exhibition explores his most remarkable but overlooked series of landscape prints, the Liber Studiorum.
The exhibition will pair Turner’s evocative Liber prints with a series of Turner’s watercolours from the Whitworth’s collection, as well as loaned works from public and private collections. Visitors are invited to explore Turner's artistic legacy and the significance of his prints.
You will see all seventy-one of Turner’s published prints. Offering a fresh perspective on Turner. Together they show how the artist’s use of colour and atmospheric effects in painting were reimagined in print using line, tone and negative space.
