Gordon Baldwin: Inscape
In the organizer's words:
Gordon Baldwin is a key figure in British modernism. With his organic, often asymmetrical sculptures and their textured surfaces, he has redefined the potential of clay as an artistic medium. In the exhibition, around 40 works from five decades provide a comprehensive insight into his sculptural and graphic work, which negotiates the concept of the vessel as a poetic medium. The title Inscape, a term coined by the poet Gerard Manley Hopkins, describes a dynamic of the inner life and its branching out into the world, which Baldwin lends body to in his works. In his vessels, the self pulsates between inwardness and a vast, changing landscape: it constantly finds new echoes between anchoring and disorientation, being at home and being exposed to the world.
The exhibition is complemented by a monograph, which links Baldwin's sculptural work with his drawings and poems for the first time.
