SUMMARY:Buy a Brick: Help build the future for Gainsborough’s House
DESCRIPTION:Buy A Brick For Our New Galleries and Crinkle-Crankle Wall\nGainsborough’s House is undertaking a major capital project to establish a national centre for Gainsborough so more people can enjoy the special setting of the artist’s childhood home and garden. The project will double the size of the museum and refurbish and re-display the historic buildings to show more of Gainsborough’s art and to sustain and protect the museum for future generations. \nWith your support\, we will use traditional handmade clay bricks from a local maker which will offer a stunning addition to Sudbury’s conservation area. The new wing will house three exhibition spaces and a creative learning studio with views over the Suffolk countryside. A distinctive crinkle-crankle wall will provide an attractive boundary for the garden\, with its giant 400-year-old Mulberry tree\, alive when Gainsborough was a boy. \nBy sponsoring a brick for £20 you will help to make this possible. The project will use thousands of bricks\, so every sponsor will help and everyone who buys a brick will be thanked in a special commemorative book. \n“Sponsoring bricks is a great way to get involved. These bricks are a local material\, so we are supporting Suffolk industry as well helping to build a beautiful feature for the site. Do join in and perhaps sponsor a brick for each member of your family\,” \nMark Bills\, Director\, Gainsborough’s House. \nHow You Can Get Involved\nIf you would like to buy a brick/s\, or perhaps give one for each member of your family or for friends\, please email mail@gainsborough.org or call 01787 372958 \nDOWNLOAD OUR BUY A BRICK LEAFLET (PDF) \nor buy a brick online at JUST GIVING \nThank you for your support.

SUMMARY:Colin Gale: Lithography
DESCRIPTION:Lithography is often thought of as the closest printmaking technique to painting and drawing because of its direct mark-making. Working on stone\, zinc plate or aluminium photo plate\, the technique is taught in easy to follow stages. Students are able to work on several images during the course using their own reference. Colin Gale directs the Artichoke Print Workshop\, London’s leading open-access Fine Art printmaking facility. Widely respected\, Colin’s expertise is evident in The Printmakers’ Bible\, co-written with Megan Fishpool. He exhibits widely and lectures in several London colleges. \nPrint workshop members fee: £298

SUMMARY:Landscape and Identity: Muilman\, Crokatt and Keable
DESCRIPTION:This talk will focus on a ‘conversation piece’ which was painted by Gainsborough when he was still making a name for himself as a gifted landscape artist and portrait painter. It was acquired jointly by Gainsborough’s House and Tate in 1993 as a masterpiece of the early phase of his career. \nA recent research project has drawn together expertise in the fields of art history\, cultural studies\, conservation and musicology. As a result\, new light has been thrown on the mercantile world of the portrait’s sitters\, and new suggestions have been made as to why Gainsborough represented them making music in the midst of a remote rustic landscape. \nIn this talk\, Peter Moore\, Research Curator will discuss his work on the project and reveal some of the fascinating findings that resulted from it. \nTickets: £8\nTo book: call 01787 372958\nor mail@gainsborough.org
