Kettle’s Yard: Exhibition

An exhibition of recent work by Tim Head, entitled Raw material, will open on 20 March 2010 and run until 9 May 2010 at Kettle’s Yard. The exhibition includes drawings, prints, digital screen works, and large-scale projections. It draws together a body of work, produced over the last eight years, that exploits both the current resources of digital technology and the traditional tools of drawing.

In 1977, Tim Head was appointed the first artist fellow at Kettle’s Yard and Clare Hall. More than thirty years later, this exhibition provides a welcome chance to catch up with his latest work, and also revisit some of the work he made during his fellowship here in 1977–78.

More information about the exhibition is available at http://www.kettlesyard.co.uk/exhibitions/head.html. The gallery is open Tuesday to Sunday, from 11.30 a.m. to 5 p.m., and admission is free.
