About this event
An exhibition of holy icons, featuring work by leading contemporary icon painters of Britain.
It has been curated by Aidan Hart, one of the leading liturgical artists in the Western world.
He has works in over 25 countries and was the designer of the Anointing Screen for King Charles’ Coronation.
The stylistic forms of icons inspired many of the great artists of the early 20th century, including Matisse and Kandinsky. And they are not merely an eastern Byzantine phenomenon. Britain’s early Christian art tradition was iconographic, producing countless masterpieces of Celtic, Saxon, and Romanesque liturgical art.
Event not open Sundays.
