Collecting Wine

Chris Hambleton

Sinopsis

Collecting wine can be a serious business or simply a hobby, but wherever you sit on that scale the same basic principles apply, whether you have 60 bottles or 6,000. This book aims to be a useful guide for both enthusiastic amateurs and more serious wine buyers, helping them navigate their way through the joys and difficulties of the wine trade. From the first steps into retail wine aisles to the complex world of auctions, brokers and allocations, finding a balance that fits your budget and lifestyle is vitally important. Wine is a luxury, one of life's great pleasures, but unless you are simply in it for the money (easier said than done), then you should also only think about wines you actually like to drink.

In the Footsteps of the East...

Gallery The Nunnery,...

Based on an exhibition at the Nunnery Gallery held in autumn 2024, In the Footsteps of the East London Group brings together 35 original paintings by members of the East London Group, paired with 22 new interpretations and responses from contemporary painters including David Hepher, Doreen Fletcher and Tim Craven.
The East London Group were a group of artists who created paintings in the 1920s and 30s of buildings, streets, and London life. They were mostly working class, realist painters whose formal education had often stopped at an early age. The group developed from an art club at the Bethnal Green Men's Institute to a group of painters who exhibited alongside prominent artists of the day and attracted enormous press coverage and support. They were taught by Walter Sickert, John Albert Cooper, Phyllis Bray, and others.
Curated by the Urban Contemporaries Group, a London-based collective who are interested in exploring the urban experience, the exhibition features 35 original paintings by members of the East London Group alongside 22 contemporary paintings inspired by them, from leading artists working in the urban landscape tradition, including Timothy Hyman, Philippa Beale, Nicole Poh and Marc Gooderham. Each artist selected for the show has a respect and curiosity for the history of the area and for these paintings made on the streets of Bow a hundred years ago, and which open a window onto the past life of east London and an earlier period in British art.
This fascinating book brings together all the images from the exhibition in print, showcasing surprising pairings of paintings from a group of artists that are steadily growing in popularity and reputation with fresh interpretations from a new generation of painters.
