More information

Robin Ironside (1912-1965) was a painter, curator, writer, illustrator and designer and a very individual artist. His paintings draw inspiration from Classical Antiquity , German Rococo, Romantic music and poetry and his use of hallucinogenic drugs. Completely self taught he was preoccupied with 'the hopes and frustrations of living'. This exhibition celebrates the centenary of this fascinating artist.
