Description

Falmouth Art Gallery is staging an exciting project called 'A childhood with the Surrealists'. Two artists, Andrew Lanyon (son of Peter Lanyon) and Antony Penrose (son of Lee Miller and Roland Penrose), have worked in dialogue with each other to celebrate and energise the gallery's Surrealist collection. The Surrealists - including Max Ernst, Henry Moore, Roland Penrose, Man Ray, Eileen Agar, Paul Eluard, Lee Miller, Dorothea Tanning, Leonora Carrington and Joseph Bard - stayed at Lambe Creek on the River Fal in Cornwall in 1937. Many of these artists are represented in Falmouth's collection. Lanyon and Penrose have, through their childhood, a direct link with these artists. As small children they met (and sometimes played games with!) many of the leading artists of the Surrealist movement. Later as teenagers Andrew and Antony visited Man Ray in Paris, where Andrew took a landmark photograph of Ray in his studio (part of the Falmouth collection). Both artists have used Falmouth's unique collection, together with childhood memories, to inform their commissions and take them in exciting directions. The project is now culminating in an exhibition of the work created by Lanyon and Penrose for the project, together with the surrealist pieces that inspired it and the artists' correspondence--New Expressions website.
