Anne Redpath @ Royal West of England Academy
30 January 2018 - 11 March 2018
An exhibition showcasing the vibrant paintings of Anne Redpath. As well as being an RWA Academician and Associate Royal Academician, Redpath was the first woman elected as a Royal Scottish Academician. Featuring works from the RWA permanent collection and loans from the Fleming-Wyfold Art Foundation.
Born in Scotland and moving from Galashiels to Hawick aged 6, Anne Redpath was a Scottish artist whose vivid domestic still lifes remain her best-known works. She found inspiration in her father’s work as a tweed designer in the Scottish Borders, seeing a connection between his use of colour and her own. Redpath was most notably influenced by both Matisse and Bonnard. This exhibition is part of Women with Vision.
