OUTLINE proudly presents Robert Perry. On Tuesday 1st May, between 5.30pm and 7.30pm, the international renowned landscape painter Robert Perry will present a selection of his work at Outline. Robert Perry has exhibited his work in shows across Europe and his work features in the permanent collection of the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. During the seminar Robert will present and discuss a series of work that he produced during trips to First World War sites, the seminar will be concluded with a question and answer session. Afterwards you are invited to join us for a talk and drinks with the artist.
“Robert Perry is one of the most original landscape painters of his generation, his work deeply rooted in the tradition of observation and direct response to nature.
His mobile studio enables him to undertake prolonged campaigns of drawing and painting on site during his expeditions to Europe. His expressive images from the Somme, Verdun, Oradour and Auschwitz are a triumph of sustained observation as he looks with an unblinking eye at humanity’s capacity for hatred and destruction.”
Brendan Flynn, Curator of Fine Art, BM&AG
