ALFRED WALLIS: ships and boats

7 April - 8 July 2012

Alfred Wallis (1855-1942) is one of the most original and inspiring British artists of the 20th Century. Living in St.Ives, Cornwall and with no training, Wallis took up painting late in life ‘for company‘ after the death of his wife. With only household oil paint in limited colours on found bits of card, Wallis made works that are, as he said himself, more experiences and events than paintings.

Kettle's Yard has become a temporary building site and its familiar order is disrupted. We are using this unique opportunity to transform the dramatic spaces of the house extension into a temporary space for making art.

NEW MUSIC at Kettle's Yard

A thrilling season of concerts that kicks off with a trip to the woods courtesy of YouTuba. Later in the series you can enjoy cool percussion group Ensemble Bash, brilliant young pianist Jessica Zhu, and the fantastic Smith Quartet.
