Overview of this event
A conversation about painting with New Old School artists, Chelsea Lehmann, Nicholas Ives, Rob Cleworth and Heidi Yardley. The discussion will focus on the way art history remains a living companion for contemporary painters, a complex and vital presence that continues to inspire and inform new work.
New Old School brings together seven contemporary painters who treat art history as a living companion rather than a distant legacy. Engaging in a "conversation across time", the artists reimagine historical forms, materials, and figures to explore how the past persists within the present. Balancing reverence and reinvention, the exhibition celebrates painting's enduring vitality and complex history. Curated by Chelsea Lehmann and Luke Thurgate.
