Three exhibitions to visit in January 2013
1. Snow Country: Woodcuts of the Japanese Winter
If you haven't yet seen this exquisite exhibition, you have another few days before it closes! I saw it just before Christmas and was entranced. It's an intimate atmospheric show and nicely focused. The print above shows you some children building a snow rabbit. No catalogue, alas!
Where: Fitzwilliam Museum
Where: Fitzwilliam Museum

| Samuel Butler, Landscape, Varallo (oil on canvas, 1885) Source: St John's |
This is the Victorian man-of-letters Samuel Butler who wrote Erewhon and The Way of All Flesh. He apparently also travelled to Italy a lot and painted what he saw there. A one-day chance to see St John's collection of his works.
Where: St John's College, Old Library.
When: Sat, 12 Jan 2013. 10 am - 4 pm.
Free.
3. Stray Artists @ ArtCell
An out-of-the-way gallery that I had not heard of before and that intrigues me. I'll try and visit this month! Then I will report on it. Let me know if you've been (or plan to go).
Where: ArtCell. Gallery at Cancer Research UK, Robinson Way on Puddicombe Way, Addenbrooke's Hospital, CB2 0RE. Off Long Road.
When: Mon-Sun 10-5. Ends 9 Feb 2013.

Hi picturetalk!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your Blog. Haven't had the opportunity to see the Japenese Winter exhibition yet but I will be making a B-line for it.
Also wanted to share an interview with Brian Sewell, which the Mall Galleries, London held recently. Soundbites have been recorded and I have posted them on my artist's Facebook page (www.facebook.com/DavidWoodArt) and you can listen to them here http://www.mallgalleries.org.uk/index.php?pid=353
Thanks for commenting, David; it's really appreciated. Hope you get to the Japanese exhibition before it closes! :-)
