RA Magazine Blog: Tales of the unexpected
The Royal Academy's current Tennant Gallery exhibition, Ivor Abrahams: Mystery and Imagination brings together the artist's 'Edgar Allan Poe' and 'Edmund Burke' print portfolios from the 1970s.
Poe in particular has captured the imagination of generatons of artists. In the film below, Abrahams explains how Poe's richly metaphoric writings - a precursor to the symbolist movement - inspired his series of images, and describes the relationship they have to his sculpture.
- Ivor Abrahams RA is April's Artist of the Month on the RA Collections website. Read more about his work here.
