From Outside: Tess Jaray - Barber Institute of Fine Arts (until 12 May 2019)

Tess Jaray
From Outside: Tess Jaray is at the Barber Institute of Fine Arts until 12 May 2019.
From the Barber website:
The elegant Art Deco design of the Barber Institute of Fine Arts inspires five major new paintings by Tess Jaray, RA. One of Britain’s most distinguished and influential painters and printmakers, Jaray works in the abstract tradition, and her contemplations on form and colour have been inspired by architecture for more than 50 years. These meditative yet monumental canvases – created specially for this exhibition – demonstrate the continuing importance of the built environment as a source of inspiration to Jaray, and explore the spatial and emotional qualities of structure, mass and surface through lyrical colour, geometry and pattern. The exhibition is enhanced by a selection of drawings created throughout Jaray’s career, on display off the nearby Green Gallery print bay.
