LESS IS MORE Morandi & Hanssen Pigott

5 March - 8 May 2011

Gwyn Hanssen Pigott draws inspiration from Giorgio Morandi’s still life paintings and works on paper. This exhibition brings the two artists together to celebrate work that is “about essence; the metaphysical expressed through the solidly physical and knowable.” (Gwyn Hanssen Pigott)
