ART .................................... Tony Cragg, New Stones - Newton’s Tones, 1978, plastic. Arts Council Collection, London © the artist Further afield The touring exhibition of objets trouvés, The Everyday and the Extraordinary (see last month) continues at Towner Gallery; from the 13th there’s a first solo UK presentation of the work of Simon Ling, an edgy plein-air oil painter of both urban and rural settings. Also at the Eastbourne gallery is the chance to see works by the experimental filmmakers shortlisted for the <strong>2018</strong> Film London Jarman Award, including Larry Achiampong & David Blandy and Jasmina Cibic. And Towner is the venue for the Ink Paper + Print fair on Oct 13th and 14th, with 55 exhibitors showcasing a range of printmaking, artists’ books, 20th-century design, ceramics and contemporary crafts. Another reason to travel to Eastbourne is the exhibition at Emma Mason Prints of works spanning the career of print-maker Chloe Cheese, from Oct 6th to Nov 3rd. Chloe Cheese Maggi Hambling No.2, Suffolk <strong>2018</strong> © Juergen Teller Back in 2005, in the Colony Room in Soho, writer/dandy Sebastian Horsley introduced painter/sculptor Maggi Hambling to YBA enfant terrible Sarah Lucas. The network of friends soon grew to include Lucas’ partner, visual/audio artist Julian Simmons and German fine-art and fashion photographer Juergen Teller. From <strong>October</strong> 20th Jerwood Gallery in Hastings is showing a collection of works by these artists, of one another, or influenced by one another’s works. It’s called The Quick and the Dead; expect to hear more on this in these pages soon. (Top) Reuben Mednikoff, The Stairway to Paradise, 1936 (Bottom left) Grace Pailthorpe, 1968. Both private collection. Photos by Ivan Coleman André Breton called them ‘the best and most surrealist of all British artists,’ but in 1940, Grace Pailthorpe and Reuben Mednikoff left that movement and henceforth became largely ignored by the art world. Until now, that is: the De La Warr are putting on a show – The Tale of Mother’s Bones – looking at their role in ‘the birth of psychorealism’, from 6th Oct - 23rd June <strong>2018</strong>. Finally, there are two events at Pallant House, Chichester opening on Oct 6th. The first exhibition of Julian Trevelyan’s work for 20 years, and a show by Cathie Pilkington, whose personal selection of modern artworks from the Pallant House Collection will be interspersed with 30 of her bawdy, doll-like sculptures.
