Organised in collaboration with Spike Island, Bristol and Camden Art Centre, London with support from the Donald Locke Estate. The exhibition is generously supported by The Ampersand Foundation, Henry Moore Foundation, the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, Alison Jacques and the Donald Locke Estate.
