20 Arc by Bernar Venet. “My work is self-generated. Nothing around me serves as a particular inspiration,” Venet said of his art. “I work, and I make discoveries while remaining open-minded to anything that might present a new possibility in the context of my work.” Friends with Arman, Jean Tinguely, Donald Judd, and Sol LeWitt, Venet worked within Minimalist and Conceptualist modes during the 1960s and 1970s. Albion looks forward to welcoming an exciting new large scale work by Venet in the coming month. #BernarVenet #AlbionBarn

‘Fastnet’ by James Turrell is a classic aperture work from 1992. Titled by the artist after the disastrous storm in the Irish Sea, this work must be the calm after the storm. Turrell reminisces: ‘Then once, in Ireland I was coming in a boat, in from Fastnet toward Whitehall. It was absolutely still. A silver light came about that bathed everything. This was an experience I had in a conscious, awake state. Most of these experiences that people talk about are generally in altered states that are like a dream, or at least, like a daydream. I would like to have the physicality of my light at least remind you of this other way of seeing. That's as best I can do. It's terrible hubris to say this is a religious art. But it is something that does reminds us of that way we are when we are thinking of things beyond us.’ #JamesTurrell #FastNet #Fastnet #ApertureWork #AlbionBarn

Albion is delighted to announce that ‘Roses part II’ by @nick_knight will open at @waddesdonmanor_nt on May the 18th. A continuation of the Roses series, this exhibition displays the rose as an enduring symbol of beauty. Nick Knight’s ‘Roses from my Garden’ series is inspired by the work of 16th and 17th century still life painters like Jan Brueghel the Elder and Jan van Huysum, but these large scale works could not be more contemporary, dramatising the timelessness of nature. We look forward to welcoming guests when restrictions ease. #AlbionBarn #NickKnight #RosesFromMyGarden #Roses #WaddesdonManor
