Buxton Contemporary tour with afternoon tea

THIS IS AN EVENT FOR UNIVERSITY HOUSE MEMBERS AND THEIR GUESTS

Join us for a guided tour of the latest exhibition at Buxton Contemporary, followed by afternoon tea at Lionel's Cafe. 

Tony Clark: Unsculpted

This exhibition is the most extensive presentation of Tony Clark’s practice since 1998 and brings together over 100 works spanning a 40-year period. Taking a closer look at Tony Clark's sustained interest in the representation of sculpture and sculptural relief through painted form, this exhibition presents a unique perspective on the artist’s prolific practice. Characterised by a sequential approach to image-making and a style which he describes as “punk classicism”, Clark’s paintings borrow from the histories of art, architecture, theatre design and decorative arts, often subverting hierarchies between these disciplines. Through ongoing bodies of work that repeat and reconfigure familiar themes, Clark has built an iterative visual language that is distinctively his own. This exhibition is curated by Jacqueline Doughty.
