America after the Fall: Painting in the 1930s
Supported by Capital Group and the Benjamin West Patrons Group
Join us for a free creative workshop inspired by the paintings in ‘America after the Fall: Painting in the 1930s’.
Experienced artist educator Cash Aspeek leads this workshop inspired by the masterpieces of America after the Fall: Painting in the 1930s. American artists in the wake of the Wall Street Crash sought to capture the changes in urbanisation and industrialisation happening in America in the 1930s. This exhibition demonstrates how creativity flourished in a time of great uncertainty, with styles ranging from Surrealism to Regionalism. Explore the differences in colour, texture, sound and shape in a selection of rural and urban landscapes and create your own artworks in response.
The workshop will be tailored to meet the access requirements of those attending.
