h.Art exhibition - Fine Art Prints and Encyclopaedia Britannica Challenge

7 - 15 September 2013  10.30am - 5.00pm - Tithe Barn Gallery

This is our 12th Annual Fine Art Prints exhibition showing new work by artists using the Trust's printmaking studio and workshop or attending our range of courses.
Alongside we are showing our Encyclopædia Britannica Challenge. In 2012 the Sidney Nolan Trust was given a set of 1950s Encyclopædia Britannica after all attempts by their original owner to find them a new home failed. They were destined to become pulp when the Trust stepped in with the idea of asking artists to select a volume and transform it into a new work of art. Participants include established book artists and newcomers to this exciting fine art medium. Some are regular members of the group of book artists working at the Trust; others simply responded to publicity about the project.
