British Self Portraits of the 20th Century

About

The collection of 100 British self-portraits founded by Ruth Borchard represents a remarkable historical archive, evoking the atmosphere of the London art world from c1920-1970. Comprising of works by a wide spectrum of artists, such as Raymond Coxon, Ithell Colquhoun, Euan Uglow and Tom McGuiness, many kinds of artistic influences are represented. Art school academicism, Camden Town, Expressionism, the Euston Road School and Kitchen Sink are all evident in this very diverse collection. Don't miss the workshops and talks throughout this exhibition. See www.durham.gov.uk/dli for more information.
