| Mixed exhibitions are held at Hookshouse in May and October. |
| |
| They usually include the work of three or four painters, printmakers or photographers, and four or five craft makers, who may be working in leather, wood, metal, glass, textiles or clay. Each exhibition includes two or three 'new' exhibitors, and has a different 'feel' from the one before. |

| Next Exhibition - ‘On Fertile Ground’ - May 29th to June 6th 2010 |
| |
| Our spring Exhibition, ‘On Fertile Ground’, will again include a rich variety of work for both indoors and outdoors. First timers at Hookshouse are printmaker Antonella Isles, showing work inspired by watery places, and painter Wendy Gibbons with a wide ranging collection of real originality. We also have return visits by James Beale, this time focussing on Tuscan themes, and Jehanne Le Quesne, who is with us again to share the fruits of a long period of exploration and development. |
| |
| Joining them will be Tessa Tyldesley with her irresistible jewellery, Sue Conway with her fine leatherwork, and Kerry von Zschock with her delightful thrown and altered earthenware. And there will, of course, be lots of pots from the kilns at Hookshouse! |
| |
| Two more new exhibitors will be showing work both indoors and outdoors. Jan Whitley will exhibit sculptures in bronze and stone resin, and woodworker Luca Fedrizzi brings us domestic items as well as driftwood sculpture and garden furniture. |
| |
| The garden space will be further enhanced by Dave Seabourne’s benches, hurdles and wattle work, and by blacksmith Dave Turner’s evocative sculptures. Carved lettering in stone by Catherine Aspray will complete the picture. |
| |
| We’ve made a few changes to the garden and added some new features, and there has also been a lot to do to repair losses resulting from the big freeze, and from some serious badger incursions. We are opening again for the NGS throughout the week, hoping to match last year’s record result, which was of course considerably boosted by a week of fine weather. Let’s hope the new ‘tea tent’ works its magic again! |
