Royal Academy of Arts, London
An Abiding Standard
This exhibition, which coincides with the publication of a catalogue raisonne', considers Anderson's engravings alongside earlier, lesser-known works in a printmaking career spanning nearly half a century: drypoints of continental market scenes, etchings of down and outs in 1920s London, and alternative city views of construction and demolition sites. Sceptical of progress, Anderson commented on and countered the spiritual emptiness, emotional detachment and elitism he regarded to be the hallmarks of modernity. An Abiding Standard coincides with the publication of Stanley Anderson. Prints: A Catalogue Raisonne' by the exhibition curators Robert Meyrick and Harry Heuser, published by the Royal Academy of Arts. Please note that the exhibition will be closed on the afternoon of 16 April due to a memorial event taking place in the John Madejski Fine Rooms.
