Tirzah Garwood: Beyond Ravilious
ExhibitionsDiscover the first major exhibition devoted to visionary artist and designer Tirzah Garwood.
Best known until now as the wife of Eric Ravilious and as the author of the autobiography Long Live Great Bardfield, Garwood excelled as a fine artist and printmaker. This retrospective marks the first time the full extent her output has been shown, giving these captivating works the critical examination and public showcase they deserve.
Head to Dulwich Picture Gallery for a rare opportunity to view more than 80 of Garwood’s works, and explore her ‘sophisticated naïve’ approach that infused apparently innocent subjects with deeper meanings. Representing each area of her practice, the exhibition showcases almost all of Garwood’s existing oil paintings, alongside her witty wood engravings, pencil sketches, experimental marbled papers, and collaged paper constructions.
