Join our curator to discover the story of The Burton’s collection in this tour around ‘Hubert Coop and Friends: A Legacy of Art and Influence’.
Find out more about the artworks and objects on display, the fascinating relationships between them and how each piece is a significant part of the bigger story that makes The Burton, and Bideford, what it is today.
Starting with the work of founding artist Hubert Coop and his contemporaries, the exhibition brings together rarely seen objects and artworks from The Burton’s stores including pieces by Bertram Prance, Charles Sims, Gillian Ayres, James Ravilious, Lucie Rie, Mary Stella Edwards, Michael Cardew and Paul Lewin – as well as our newest acquisition, Mayflower, All Flowers (2020) by internationally-renowned artist Yinka Shonibare CBE RA.*
This event accompanies ‘Hubert Coop and Friends: A Legacy of Art and Influence’, on until 15 March.
