[BAS Newsletter] Bromley Art Society Art Matter Friday 14th May "My Favourite Gallery" + +

[Paul Stringfellow]

Dear All. *My Favourite Gallery - Art Matters*
With galleries beginning to reopen next week we thought it would be a 
good time to get some inspiration and discuss one of the topics 
suggested last year: "My Favourite Gallery". As gallery going will 
probably need to be a less spontaneous thing for a while what would you 
recommend? Do you have a favourite painting? Did you know about the 
Constable paintings in the V&A? What about the Turner galleries in the 
Tate? What about the less well known museums? Would you recommend the 
Garden Museum? The Estorick? The Whitechapel Art Gallery? The Queens 
Gallery? For this week let’s focus on galleries in London or within a 
day trip’s distance of home. With numbers beginning to fall at the Art 
Matters meeting as the weather has improved and lockdown has begun to 
lift we are proposing to move the meeting to being a monthly one - 
however we are proposing one last practical challenge for May. As you 
may be aware we are hoping to run the Beckenham Place Park exhibition 
later in the year (definitely online but hopefully also physical) the 
theme for this will be Park Life. So Deborah is suggesting a theme of 
"In the Park" (and NB bluebells have been sighted in both Forster 
Memorial Park and Beckenham Place Park so this could be a subject - but 
as usual any medium and any interpretation is admissible). Zoom details 
at foot of email. *Last Fridays Watercolour demo - did you have a go 
yourself? *Last Fridays watercolour by Tim Wilmot was popular and well 
attended. If anyone attempted a paint along (during or after the live 
session, as the video recording is on our website) we would be very 
interested. If you would like to submit it to Tim for feedback please 
send it to Paul Stringfellow <membership at bromleyartsociety.org.uk> by 
tomorrow evening otherwise we would love to see it if you just bring it 
along to this Fridays Art Matters. ** *BAS Website Gallery*** 
Deborahwill also be circulating how to have your works included in the 
website gallery this week. So watch this space. Kind Regards, Deborah 
and Paul *Zoom details:* *Bromley Art Society is inviting you to a
