We also offer a great space to socialise with others with similar interests and spend a quiet moment or two dedicated to yourself exploring an ancient craft. Our studio hours are 1pm to 3pm and 6pm to 8pm on Thursdays, beginning 12th January. We aim to offer limited spaces so we can allocate fair teaching time to everyone! The classes will be run by Annie & Ekta AKA Mudlife, a community venture. Tickets www.bellhouse.co.uk/events

Thursday 12 January:

Mad Men & Artists – How the Advertising Industry Exploited Fine Art

8pm -9pm. Fine art has provided advertisers and their agencies with a great deal of material to use in their creative campaigns. The lecture will describe some of the processes by which these advertisements have been created and why the works of the masters have been a particularly rich source. From the Renaissance through to the present day, fine art continues to provide opportunities to enhance brand imagery with admiration, humour, satire and irony. In what should be an entertaining and informative lecture, the lecturer will use a wide range of visuals and video to show examples of the original works, the creative process and the (not always entirely successful) advertisements that are the result. Lecturer: Tony Rawlins. Also available to members and non-members live on Zoom.
