A Celebration of Colour Podcast 1

It has been just over a month since the last Friends' blogpost, this is because all talks, trips and events at Swindon Museum and Art Gallery have been cancelled due to the Covid 19 pandemic.
However thanks to Katie Ackrill, Art on Tour Engagement Officer at the museum, there are several online initiatives under the title Art on Tour, do click on the link to find them. The one I'd like to share here is the first podcast which takes its name from the next exhibition due to be held in the main gallery at the museum - A Celebration of Colour.
Katie has used 3 paintings form the Swindon Collection to illustrate her talk, they are:
'Florestan' by Gillian Ayes

and 'Spanish Chair' by Mary Fedden

and finally this beautifully precise 'Cambridge July' painted by Mark Lancaster in 1969

To hear what Katie has to say about these 3 paintings, just click on the link to YouTube podcast
I'd like to share all the podcasts on this blog, so will use the next posts to try and keep up with Katie's podcasts.
