Exhibitions<br />

Landscapes of the Somme - Paintings by contemporary artist Robert Perry<br />

As part of the national<br />

commemorations of the First World<br />

War, Guildford House Gallery hosts<br />

Landscapes of the Somme,<br />

featuring drawings and paintings<br />

of the Somme Battlefields by<br />

an internationally known British<br />

landscape painter.<br />

Although primarily a traditional landscape<br />

painter working exclusively on site with his<br />

unique mobile “Field Studio” in locations<br />

all over Europe from the Isle of Man to the<br />

Alps, Robert Perry is particularly well known<br />

for his drawings and paintings of the 1914-<br />

18 Battlefields of The Western Front. For<br />

more than 20 years he has been visiting<br />

Flanders, The Somme and Verdun, studying<br />

and making visual records of the killing<br />

fields, trenches and labyrinthine tunnel<br />

systems as they are now.<br />

In recognition of his dedication he was<br />

made an Honorary Citizen of the town of<br />

Albert (epicentre of the Battle of the Somme<br />

in which three of his great-uncles were killed<br />

in 1916), and invited to exhibit his work at le<br />

Centre Mondial de la Paix (the World Centre<br />

for Peace) at Verdun and at the Council of<br />

Europe in Strasbourg.<br />

His expeditions have been documented<br />

extensively by British and French Television<br />

and his paintings have formed major solo<br />

exhibitions at the Durham Light Infantry<br />

Museum and Art Gallery and many City Art<br />

Galleries including Birmingham, Blackburn,<br />

Stockton-on-Tees, The Volksbank Halle,<br />

Rheinland Pfalz, and L’ Espace Culturel d’<br />

Exhibitions<br />

Alice in Wonderland - Themes and Variations<br />

Since the first appearance of Lewis<br />

Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in<br />

Wonderland in 1865, there have been<br />

an endless adaptations and re-imaginings<br />

of the world’s most celebrated dreamchild<br />

and her wonderful adventures.<br />

In this series of small changing displays we explore<br />

how Alice, and the Wonderland she visited,<br />

have been illustrated across the years and around<br />

the world; how the book has been adapted on<br />

stage and on screen; how artists and writers have<br />

been inspired by Carroll’s creations and how<br />

Alice has been appropriated for every purpose<br />

you can imagine from advertising to pop music.<br />

The series begins with “Alice through the ages”<br />

which explores how Alice’s appearance has been<br />

frequently updated over the past 150 years<br />

and “Alice around the world” which looks at<br />

distinctive Alice illustrations from across the<br />

continents.<br />

Accessibility<br />

Guildford Borough Council welcomes deaf and disabled<br />

visitors to its heritage sites. The Council also aims to<br />

ensure best possible access to the collection and<br />

services. Where this is not possible (due to constraints<br />

of the historic buildings or environment) a reasonable<br />

alternative will be provided.<br />

Access to Guildford Borough Council’s sites is up or<br />

down steps and there are currently only stairs within<br />

the historic buildings. Please contact us in advance<br />

so we can assist you as much as possible to prepare<br />

for your visit or provide an alternative option.<br />

An induction loop is provided at reception and<br />

shop desks.<br />

Please contact us to request this brochure in<br />

large print or an alternative format.<br />
