POST NUDE is a biennial exhibition at the Horsebridge Centre, Whitstable. The premise is sweet and simple: nudes in all mediums with one format in common - the diminutive dimensions of the common or garden postcard. As part of their weekly life-drawing class, our year one students swapped A1 sheets of cartridge paper for the confines of pristine postcards and consigned to them the likeness of their life model model in pen, ink, charcoal, paint and pastel. Once completed, the students' postcards were gathered up in readiness to be posted to the Horsebridge - but not before I was able to photograph their respective efforts to showcase here in all their glory.
I asked our life-drawing tutor, Vicki Fountas, for a few words in response to our students' artistic endeavours - and Vicki had this to say:
"I’d like to praise the CAA Year ones (and our friends from year three), for the work showcased here is testament to their creativity and tenacity.
"I’d like to praise the CAA Year ones (and our friends from year three), for the work showcased here is testament to their creativity and tenacity.
Life drawing is integral to most facets of Art & Design and a difficult thing to master. The students have shown ambition and taken risks by embracing new techniques and a variety of media (even toothbrushes on the end of sticks!). They have been pushing boundaries that should enable progress and enhance their projects.
The life models have been great: professional and innovative, which is reflected in the definitive drawings and paintings; the work shows an understanding and empathy for the figure, and an amazing array of thoughtful, expressive representations.
Well done everyone!"
POST NUDE at the Horsebridge will be exhibited from May 4th to June 28th. I know the Horsebridge would welcome as many submissions as possible, so, if you're reading this and feel suitably inspired to participate, go here for the guidelines for entries. Entries from all over the world are encouraged. Please contact Sarah Banville (Curator/Galleries Officer) with any further questions: sarah@thehorsebridge.org.uk
