About
Nothing in the World But Youth
17 September 2011-8 January 2012
The second exhibition at Turner Contemporary Nothing in the World but Youth brings together 200 works by 94 artists exploring how adolescent experience has been reflected in art and culture from the late nineteenth century to the present day.
The exhibition reflects and examines the complex picture of teenage lives and the differing views society has of its young people through a selection of art works, objects and memorabilia. These include works by internationally and nationally acclaimed artists, writers, musicians and designers including Henry Moore, Peter Blake, Sarah Lucas, Andy Warhol, Mark Leckey, Jim Lambie and David Hockney.
Using four main themes; Place, Space and Territory; Groups and Individuals; Rebellion and Responsibility and Boys, Girls, Sexuality and Growing up, the exhibition takes as its starting point Margate's own past and sense of place.
The exhibition celebrates early work made by JMW Turner; among the 15 works included are a sketch of his mother Mary Turner circa 1791, the oil painting Crossing the Brook 1815, watercolours of Margate including St John's Church, Margate, 1784, A Street in Margate, Looking Down to the Harbour 1784 and a miniature Self-Portrait circa 1790.
