SUMMARY:Book Launch - Simon Edge 'A Right Royal Face Off'
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book signing of Simon Edge’s latest book A Right Royal Face Off \n“A humorous approach seemed all the more fitting given that the events of A Right Royal Face-Off\, which will be published in July 2019\, take place in the Georgian era. This was the age of fops\, dandies and courtesans\, an anything-goes epoch of pre-Victorian decadence which was a heyday – think Swift\, Fielding\, Sterne\, Thackeray and Austen – of comic or satirical literature.”\nSimon Edge \n“One part mystery\, one part history\, one part satire\, and wholly entertaining. A hilarious portrait of the artist as a frustrated man\, Simon Edge’s novel is a glorious comedy of painting and pretension”\nRyan O’Neill \n“I loved this book\, a laugh-out-loud contemporary satire skewering today’s tired reality TV formats married with a tale of vicious rivalry in the world of 18th-century royal portraiture. Simon Edge manages to pin asses’ ears onto the lot of them\, to great comic effect”\nLiz Trenow \nCopies of the book will be available for the author to sign.\nFree event with refreshments.\nTo book: contact Gainsborough’s House 01787 372958 or liz@gainsborough.org \nhttps://www.simon-edge.com/single-post/2018/12/16/Coming-next-a-comedy-about-Thomas-Gainsborough

SUMMARY:Nicole Farhi: Heads and Hands
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn 2015 Nicole Farhi\, sculptor and former fashion designer created a bronze bust of Thomas Gainsborough for Gainsborough’s House. Four years later we are delighted to announce a solo exhibition of sculptural portraits of heads and hands by the artist. \nThe exhibition includes busts of some of the great artists of the past 100 years including Lucian Freud (1922-2011)\, Francis Bacon (1909–1992)\, but perhaps most notably\, Sir Eduardo Paolozzi (1924-2005)\, Nicole Farhi’s great friend and mentor. Influential figures from stage and screen are represented through the heads of Sir David Hare\, Tom Stoppard\, Judi Dench and Helena Bonham Carter. \nTalking about the process of creating her work\, Nicole explains that the portrait busts emerge from a sitting in the studio where photographs are taken of the subject. \n‘I then start building an armature and after a few hours sculpting in clay the structure of the face will appear or not … Once I have the structure the true character will follow –sometimes days later\, weeks\, sometimes months.’ \nImportantly the exhibition also includes portraits of hands and\, like the heads that they accompany in this exhibition\, they show character and reflect the life and work of the sitter. They portray the dexterous hands of musicians\, graceful hands of dancers\, the experienced hands of a sculptor and the joyful hands of children. \n‘Hands’\, Nicole says\, ‘can be even more expressive than the face. They can tell you everything about who the person is\, what they are like\, what they do.’ \nA sculptor for nearly thirty-five years Nicole studied with Eduardo Paolozzi and has exhibited widely. Her depiction of artists and cultural figures led to the creation of the bust of Thomas Gainsborough\, which Nicole presented to Gainsborough’s House. \nImage: Nicole in her studio

SUMMARY:National Lottery #ThanksToYou
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to once again be taking part in the National Lottery #ThanksToYou campaign that was initiated by Gainsborough’s House in 2016. Now in it’s third year\, we are joined in this campaign by hundreds of National Lottery funded visitor attractions across the UK hosting events to thank the National Lottery players\, who raise on average £30million each week for projects all over the country. Gainsborough’s House has been awarded £4.7million from the Heritage Lottery Fund towards a £7.5million project that will transform the House\, and an additional £500\,000 towards creating a £1million Endowment. This will secure it’s future and give the opportunity to create a National Centre for Thomas Gainsborough\, which will bring his life and art to many more people. \nNicole Farhi\, sculptor and supporter of Gainsborough’s House said that this ‘is a perfect National Lottery project. Not only will it help disseminate the work of a great British artist\, its ambition will bring both people and prosperity to Sudbury\, the town of his birth.’ \nAs a small gesture of thanks and a way of giving something back to the thousands of people who buy tickets\, Gainsborough’s House will be offering free entry and a daily free guided tour to National Lottery players. Any visitor who presents a National Lottery ticket or scratchcard between Monday 3rd and Friday 7th December can visit the House and the latest exhibition\, Early Gainsborough: From the Obscurity of a Country Town\, free of charge. \nJoin us for a free guided tour:\nMonday\, Tuesday \, Wednesday and Friday at 2pm\nThursday at 11am \n
