SUNLIGHT: Roger Ackling
18 May - 22 September 2024
SUNLIGHT is the first survey of British artist Roger Ackling (1947-2014) and the most significant exhibition of his work to date.
In 2012 I published ‘Ian’s Fleet’ with photographs by Robin Gillanders of the ‘Regatta’ with the toy sail boats of Ian Hamilton Finlay on the pond of @LittleSpartaIHF, which Ian and Robin held in June 2002. #MuseumsUnlocked @profdanhicks
The anthropomorphic qualities of Flanagan’s hares make them a natural metaphor for the human condition. In his Nijinski hares, Rodin’s homage to the dancer gives inspiration along with Flanagan's experience of dancing. ‘Sculpture is always going on’ continues at @hetzlergallery.
