Eastside Projects, Birmingham

I visited the Eastside Projects  exhibition on 14th October 2015 with tutors and fellow students from  years one and  two    BA/Diploma of HE Fine Art. 

This is a very interesting exhibition of contemporary painting and sculpture by artists including Gavin Wade, Yelena Popova, Haim Steinbach, Charlotte Cullinan and Jeanine Richards, Amalia Pica, Nathalie Du Pasquier and many others.

I found the whole exhibition very inspiring,  but my favourite piece of work is Cornelius: The Collectors Case by Yelena Popova.  This is made up of seven aluminium frames, ten paintings, and mixed media on linen in a very ingenious design that holds many treasures but can be folded up compactly for ease of transport.
