Expression: Portraits of artists
Richard Boll
Expression presents a series of portraits of celebrated contemporary artists, taken by the photographer Richard Boll.
The exhibition explores notions of artistry and identity, celebrating the individuality of the artists through traditional and contemporary approaches to portraiture. Featured artists include Yarli Allison, Rana Begum, Gordon Cheung, Adam Chodzko, Ann Christopher, Marie Harnett, Bruce McLean, Cornelia Parker, and Gavin Turk as well as Sussex-based Stig Evans, Richard Graville, James William Murray, and Jake Wood-Evans.
