DETAILS ABOUT OUR SECOND-EVER PLEIN AIR EVENT – 4 SEPTEMBER 2022 – TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON
Set in the stunning ribbon of parks at the heart of Leamington Spa, this non-selective art event was open to all local 2D & 3D artists (not only WOS members). Whether well established or just starting out, artists were invited to engage with their surroundings and produce a creative piece in response. A number of our established WOS artists also provided mentor support to the emerging artists.
Whereas most Plein Air events tend to be restricted to paintings or drawings, we invited artists to engage in their surroundings and produce a creative piece in response in any 2D or 3D art form. In addition to paints, pastels or pencil, this included wire, felt, print, photography and even mixed media using leaves, twigs, etc found in the parks .
Visitors were welcome to wander around and see the art in action. At the end of the day, the artwork was displayed in a pop-up exhibition in The Glasshouse, followed by a month-long exhibition in the LSA Gallery.
EXHIBITION
The artworks produced at our Plein Air Event were then displayed at the East Lodge Gallery in Jephson Gardens, with thanks to Leamington Studio Artists and East Lodge Gallery. A great opportunity to see the amazingly diverse selection of artwork created and the chance to buy the pieces too.
