The Countryside Through Mid-Century Art coincides with a rare opportunity to visit the three-acre Netherwood Manor Gardens, which are open for just a handful of weekends this year as part of the National Garden Scheme.
Growing out of a previously displayed collection of landscape paintings by World War Two war artist John Piper, the exhibition includes work by a number of his contemporaries, offering a compelling exploration of how the British landscape was represented across multiple media in the mid-20th century.
As well as original works by Piper - including a feature collection of fabrics - the show also includes artwork by, among others, Katharine Church, Elisabeth Frink, Rowland Suddaby and Robert Tavener.
The exhibition is curated by Fifties Art & Design - specialists in affordable mid-century art and stockists of a range of original pictures, prints and posters from the period.
The exhibition will run in two halves between 16th - 25th May and 5th - 14th June, with free entry to the gallery.
Private visits by appointment 26th May - 4th June. Curator’s tours of the show will be offered on Saturday, 16th May, 5 - 6.30 pm, and Friday, 5th June, 6 - 7.30 pm.
