Curated by Stephen Walter
This exhibition shows work by ten artists that to varying extents deal with
ideas of contemporary Romanticism through presenting visions of the future and
reflecting upon a nostalgic and natural past.
The difficulty with representing
classically beautiful landscapes, memory and the yearning for Homelands' at
present clash with the disenfranchisement of a lost wilderness into
domesticated, sub-urban, plastic and supermarket-ridden environments. The
limitations of a physical Romanticism must find new routes in the face of a
landscape ever increasingly shaped by convenience.
