About
£5.00 booking fee, please call the gallery to reserve a seat.
Tute’s paintings have a dreamlike aura and are dense with mythology, personal symbolism and subtle literary references. A strong sense of storytelling runs throughout his work, with surreal twists, playful bursts of colour and compelling interpretations of imaginary worlds.
After working for many years as a Principle Lecturer and Director of Studies at the UWE (1962-85), Tute developed a rewarding career as a painter, wood engraver and freelance book illustrator. He is a highly respected member of the Royal West of England Academy, a fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers and Former Chairman of the Society of Wood Engravers.
