John Piper - A Very British Artist
New gallery opens 13 December 2016!
John Piper was one of the most popular, prolific and versatile British artists of the 20th century. He spent most of his working life living in Fawley, just outside Henley on Thames.
This new gallery and exhibition will examine the diversity of Piper’s career from modernism to romanticism, and from Coventry’s Cathedral to Brittany’s Beaches. Piper’s extraordinary diversity of work covered paintings, collages, drawings, stained glass, ceramics, tapestries, set design and textiles.
The exhibition features unseen work from private collections from around the country, as well as a continually evolving display of loans from galleries such as the Tate, V&A and the Arts Council.
We gratefully acknowledge the generous support of all those who donated to our crowdfunding campaign, in partnership with the Art Fund.
