About
The Bowes Museum is pleased to host another UK exclusive exhibition, this time by British artist Jonathan Yeo. Acclaimed worldwide for his depictions of public figures including Nicole Kidman, Cara Delevingne, Damien Hirst and members of the Royal family, this new show is based on his Surgery Series. Through the classical medium of oil paint Yeo will be exploring the intricacies and complex issues surrounding the current cult for cosmetic surgery and the quest for physical ‘perfection’.
Working from archival photos and observing cosmetic surgeons at first hand, the works show patients in pre- and post-operative states.
