SUMMARY:Mapping The Archive\, Birmingham's Journey Through the RBSA Permanent Collection
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition opens on Thursday 18 September 6.00pm. \nMapping the Archive\, Birmingham’s Journey Through the RBSA Permanent Collection focuses on the changing face of Birmingham’s cityscape\, travelling through its architectural history by way of the Society’s Permanent Collection. \nWork dating back as far as 1814\, the same year that the RBSA’s earliest incarnation the Birmingham Academy of Arts was born\, are displayed alongside artwork depicting the second city’s current landscape\, and there are some notable names amongst the artists included. \nThe Society of Arts engraving by Thomas Radclyffe (active 1817 – 1830) dating from c.1830 and Charles Walter Radclyffe’s (1817 – 1903) c.1840 lithograph View of New Street\, Portico of the RBSA and Town Hall deservedly take their place\, with Frank T Lockwood’s (1895 – 1961) Old Houses Near the Crescent from 1952. \nAs well as these gems\, visitors to the exhibition will also be able to enjoy works depicting other Birmingham locations\, including Digbeth and Deritend\, Broad Street\, Chamberlain Square\, Piccadilly Arcade\, and Moseley Road School of Art\, to name but a few. They will see buildings which remain\, as well as those which no longer stand\, reminding us that the much-maligned Birmingham is a beautiful city worth celebrating and championing. \nPrivate View: Thursday 18 September 6.00pm – 8.00pm\nExhibition closes: Saturday 18 October 5.00pm \nFeatured image: Edward Richard Taylor RBSA\, RBSA and Town Hall\, New Street\, 1878 (detail) \nPurchase your copy of the catalogue here \nMapping The Archive Exhibition Catalogue

SUMMARY:Contemporary Printmaking from the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers is one of the world’s premier organisations representing the work and interests of printmakers. All Members of the Society are practising professional printmakers\, elected by a panel of their peers. \nThis exhibition shows a cross section of work by the current Membership\, and highlights the enormous diversity of techniques and approaches used by RE Fellows and Associates. \nKnown initially as the Society of Painter-Etchers\, the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers was founded by Sir Frances Seymour Haden in 1880 as a reaction to the Royal Academy of Arts’ reluctance to exhibit etchings and engravings. Following Queen Victoria granting the royal prefix in 1888\, the group became the Royal Society of Painter-Etchers. In 1991 the name was changed again to embrace the broader range of printmaking practices\, however the abbreviation RE was retained as both an identity and the qualifying letters that follow an elected Member’s name. \nThe RE is extremely proud of its history and the many eminent past Members who have contributed to the Society from its inception to the present day. \nPrivate View: Tuesday 7 October 6.00pm – 8.00pm\nExhibition closes: Saturday 18 October 5.00pm

SUMMARY:Debbie Baird and Brian Wood\, Ego: Identity And Power
DESCRIPTION:Debbie Baird and Brian Wood are figurative oil painters who studied together and have previously exhibited with other artists in London. \nBoth artists share an interest in expressing the essence of the individual\, and the nature of their relationship with the world. Each has their own approach\, creating a mix of vibrant emotive images and powerful social commentary. \nDebbie’s work combines oil paint with collage\, creating interest and complexity to enrich her narrative on the way our identities are coloured by our backgrounds. \nBrian describes his process as ‘painting conversations’\, between himself\, his subjects\, and the viewer. He builds narratives on the impact of power: how it is used and misused\, and how this shapes who we are. \nDebbie and Brian will be talking about their work and their practice at a Private View to be held mid-way through the exhibition. \nPrivate View: Saturday 25 October 2.00pm – 4.00pm\nExhibition closes: Saturday 1 November 5.00pm \nFeatured image: Debbie Baird\, Moonchild (detail)\, Brian Wood\, Feeding The Beast (detail)

SUMMARY:Cristina Gardiner ARBSA\, Transitory Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:Cristina Gardiner ARBSA is a landscape painter whose work crosses between abstraction and representation\, borne from strong emotions in response to place. \nIn her exhibition Transitory Landscapes\, Cristina draws on three instances: Estuarine\, time; Urban\, space; and Elemental\, light and emotion\, exploring her interest in post-industrial/urban sites and abstraction. \nCristina’s work starts with her experiences of a place\, during which she records sketches\, notes\, and photographs\, which are then reimagined in the studio. In real life the sites are already changing\, but through Cristina’s reinterpretation\, the ‘places’ acquire different meanings\, containing edges and structures as markers of their essence. \nThe concept of ‘transience’ and of nothing staying the same is not new\, but it retains a strong fascination in Cristina’s view because continuous change and transformation embody the essence of the human condition. From the inevitable passing of time and physical transformations\, to cultural and social shifts\, changes are inevitable. \nPrivate View: Saturday 25 October 2.00pm – 4.00pm\nExhibition closes: Saturday 1 November 5.00pm \nFeatured image: Cristina Gardiner ARBSA\, Estuarine II Longing For The Horizon
