Opening Thursday 7 March, from 6-8pm
Nature Morte explores contemporary still life practice, a genre perhaps synonymous with the symbolist painters of 16th & 17th Century but one which has been a constant subject throughout the history of art - its significance changing over time.
The exhibition takes a fresh look at four differing contemporary artists who successfully - and at times playfully - use and expand on the language of still life for modern audience.
