Bob and Roberta Smith exhibition
Epstein Archive Gallery.
Persoanl collection of papers - loves and losses of the sculptor Jacob Epstein.
When looking at the works I always see a sense of personality. Beliefs. Ethics.
A sense of revolutionary art. Questioning and expressing fears and truths on placards.
Placards are used so everyone can see, can be noticed and realised. The works almost give a negative perspective on art even though the work itself is intriging and colourful.
Ideas behind the works -
-What happens to the collective memory of an artist when they die.
- The effect of an artist's work and life on their children.
- Feminism
- Issues surrounding mental health.
Bob and Roberta Smith expresses, through Epstein Archive Gallery, two years of love, sorrow and obsession.
