Elizabeth Frink: Humans and Other Animals, featured at The Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts.
A retrospective looking at the life and work of Frink in the 25th anniversary year of her death. This exhibition explores Frink’s creative journey and how the world around her impacted the themes of her work. Varying from her almost grotesque ‘Bird Monsters’ which appear to represent the fear felt at the time in Britain to her ‘Green Man’ series which references the ethereal creature found in folklore and traditions throughout time.
The scale of the collection being housed in the SCVA for the exhibition is immense as it not only documents her personal work but also the work of her contemporaries who were discussing the themes of the time. The comparative nature of this exhibit is useful as it helps see her reluctance to adhere to the constraints of styles at the time and her progression from her early draughtsmanship to the iconic bronze sculptor she is known best for .

Women. Power. Protest., featured at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.
A collaborative exhibition with the Arts Council Collection and four major British galleries highlighting the works of feminist artists and activists. This collection of works covers many topics discussed in modern feminist literature and how society has changed for women since the first success for the women’s right to vote.
Approaches to the theme vary greatly, with many of the works being conceptual and not immediately clear as to how they are relevant, with others being explicit showing some of the harrowing facts and information about the hardships women have faced over the years. Representation of women in this exhibition is clearly vital as not only does it adhere to a western white cis feminism but also shows us stories of women from marginalised communities and how they have responded to the changing representation of women.

These images show my favourite artworks from the Apfelbaum exhibition. The use of circular forms in her work unite each different piece creating a consistency in the visuality of the exhibition.
In the first image the suspended ceramic beads winding through the exhibition broke up the room separating themes and materials from one another in a unique and subtle way.
The second image shows a collection of paintings, the unique colours used for each ring create a contrast to the repetitive use of a central yellow circle. The sense of unity is reiterated through the use of the same colour, as although each painting is different they are all inspired by the one yellow hue.
A projection is shown in the final image, this is of the living spiral shown in a previous post. It is a clip of the flowers expanding and contracting as they age and are affected by the light. This is different to the bold colours used within the rest of the exhibition as it appears more naturalistic and fluid. .

Lucy Orta: Procession Banners, featured in Medicine Bakery Birmingham.
An anniversary collection in celebration of the initial success of some women earning the right to vote, made in collaboration with inmates of HMP Downview. Many of the inmates involved in the project had been moved from HMP Holloway, in which many prominent suffragettes had been held.
The unification of all backgrounds, cultures and ages through these works is best seen through the dedications of pieces and imagery used. The scale of the banners shows a sense of power and pride for the movement that enabled the women’s vote to be realised; with the luxe fabrics making all of the imagery appear vibrant and celebratory.
