Paul Smith’s new paintings come from his time exploring George Eliot’s legacy in Nuneaton, as part of the writer’s bicentenary, and reflects her understanding of modern English life as being illustrated by the psychology of its marginalia.
In his edgelands, Smith finds the haunting beauty of life in an England of suburban landscapes – places where the delicate balances that describe the ethereality of Englishness itself are pushed, and push back.

The exhibition will be accompanied by an artist’s talk: Saturday 12 Feb. 2022 at 2pm. Paul Smith will be in conversation with Prof. Ruth Livesey, Royal Holloway. See website to book.
