NORMAN ACKROYD CBE RA

Travels with Copper and Wax

Norman Ackroyd is one of Britain’s leading landscape artists working in watercolour and etching. The show coincides with the artist’s 80th birthday. 

Travels with Copper and Wax offers a rare opportunity for visitors to view Ackroyd’s early and recent

etchings together, giving a unique insight into his work.

The exhibition will bring together two distinct areas of Ackroyd’s work – ‘intimate English landscapes’

from the early 1990s, some of which are now scarce, will be shown alongside ‘the edge’, his more

recent dramatic monochrome landscapes based on the harsh coastlines, outcrops of rock and wild

seas of the north of Scotland and the west of Ireland.

“Etching, at its best, is simply another, but very beautiful drawing medium. It demands

absolute simplicity of intent.”  Norman Ackroyd
