Falmouth Frameworks Exhibition

Post by framemaker »

There is an exhibition on the importance of the frame and painting at Falmouth Art Gallery from 17th September 2011 to 19th November 2011

Falmouth Art Gallery - Frameworks exhibition

A book has been published to coincide with the exhibition, it is called Falmouth Frameworks by Brian Stewart, Lynn Roberts, and Paul Mitchell.
The book is really worth getting, I would even say it is in my top 5 frame related books. It is full of beautiful photographs of pictures with their frames, with a varied selection of styles and periods, I think it would be a useful reference for most framers.

If like me you have an unhealthy anger at the fact that virtually every art book and website in the world, fails to reproduce images of paintings with their frames, therefore ripping away and leaving out an integral part of paintings :swear:
Then this exhibition and book, and the acknowledgement of the importance of showing frame and painting together, will be a real delight. :clap:
