27 Sep Until Saturday 28 September at Bermondsey Project Space
STILLNESS IN MOVEMENT an exhibition by artists of the London Group will be closing Saturday 28 September. The starting point for this exhibition are TS Eliot’s lines Not known, because not looked for; But heard, half heard in the stillness; Between two waves of the sea. Its themes and offshoots are explored – the stillness before dawn; chance encounters that are frozen time; the anticipation and pause before a performance; the stillness between breaths… Finally, the very notion of stillness is challenged by David Redfern with his submission, An Atom. The artist points out, ‘like the universe, an atom is in constant dynamic movement. The only time it is still is when it is imagined.’
The London Group was formed in 1913 and is one of the oldest artists’ collectives in the world. Founder members include Walter Sickert, Sylvia Goss, Ethel Sands, Jacob Epstein, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska and Lucien Pissaro.
