Paint, faith, and the everyday

In my latest exhibition review for the Church Times I explore common ground between Victorian and Pop Artists in exhibitions at the Guildhall Art Gallery and the Saatchi Gallery: 

'More than half a century of change separates the Victorian age from the beginnings of Pop Art in the 1950s. In the 1950s, after years of austerity, people were increasingly energised by mass communication in new forms, affluence, advertising, and consumerism. Yet, as two thematic exhibitions focusing on Victoriana and Pop Art respectively reveal, fundamental concerns were broadly similar in both eras.'
