Art masters - Francis Hewlett & Lionel Miskin

21 Sep 2013 - 23 Nov 2013

This exhibition showcases the work of two artists, Francis Hewlett (1930 - 2012) and Lionel Miskin (1924 - 2006).


As tutors at Falmouth School of Art they were responsible for introducing new ways of teaching that energised the Falmouth art scene in the 1960s and 70s.

Although stylistically distinct from one another, both men were good friends and shared a similar sense of the absurd.

The exhibition includes examples of work from each artist, showing their breadth and range, from etchings and paintings to quirky ceramics.
