EXPRESSION SUSTAINABLE

Ò ABOVE An exciting and versatile, world-class gallery

Ò INSET Fynn and Zinzi Tucker run the Jackson Foundation

Uniquely ambitious, award winning and championing the arts and the natural world, be sure to visit Jackson Foundation in St Just.

Housed within a massive exindustrial building in the centre of the thriving former mining town of St Just-in-Penwith, the Jackson Foundation was set up by leading contemporary artist Kurt Jackson and his wife Caroline and hosts contemporary exhibitions, events and fundraisers, in partnership with a variety of environmental and non-profi t organisations.

This exciting and versatile, world-class art gallery is free to the public, bridging the gap between public and private art centres, and is the ideal venue to view a varied eclectic range of artistic expression spanning painting, poetry, sculpture, installation and fi lm.

Run by husband and wife Fynn and Zinzi Tucker, this environmentally focused art space is green-built, sustainably managed and carbon-positive. Powered by an array of high effi ciency solar panels and ground

source heat pumps, the Foundation goes further by delivering paintings within Cornwall by one of its two zero emission, fully-electric cars.

Providing local employment, raising awareness and funds for groups working to protect the environment, and giving back to a community that has been home to the Jackson family for nearly thirty years, this art space works to become a positive force for change. The Jackson Foundation aims to provide a space, open to one and all, to reȵ ect on our symbolic relationship with the natural world, and the rewards to be found by taking a step back and looking around; to see the world through an artist’s eyes.
