Charlotte Snook Presentation of the Portrait of Maria de Medici, after Rubens, 2020 oil on board 30 x 25 cm Charlotte Snook is a British figurative painter who uses her knowledge of art history and a contemporary understanding of human nature to make images in jewel-like oils. She starts with Breugel, Poussin, Claude and 17th-century Flemish art, but her dislocated scenes are often filled with barely supressed, violent energy. Indeed, her work allows for the apocalyptic nature of the world. “They are concerned with a loss of paradise,” Snook told artist-curator Alan Rankle. “It’s all about the painting: light, colour, contrast, the composition and brushstrokes. I try to set a narrative without there being one.” Born in Middlesex, Snook studied at Hornsey College of Art and gained her MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art. In her academic career, she has taught at art schools and universities throughout England, and from 2001-09 was Senior Lecturer in Visual Communication (Foundation) at Central Saint Martins, London. She lives and works in Hastings. Snook’s work has been included in the Jerwood Drawing Prize (1995-99), the Hunting Prize and the Garrick/Milne Prize. Solo exhibitions include Rare Affairs at the Basement Gallery, Boise, Idaho, USA; Hastings Museum and Art Gallery; and St Anne’s Galleries, Lewes.

Tacita Dean (b.1965) Longstone Lighthouse, 1996 analogue photograph 35 x 53 cm. Tacita Dean is an internationally acclaimed British artist now based in Berlin whose photographic works, films and drawings have been exhibited in museums and galleries worldwide. She has been the recipient of many awards and prizes including the Kurt Schwitters Prize, the Hugo Boss Prize and the International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale. Her work investigates history, memory, time and place and the nature of film itself. Her works have often featured the sea. The curator Clarrie Wallis has suggested that this fascination “can be traced back to 18th-century notions of the sublime, where elemental forces were viewed as emblems of turbulent and ungovernable human emotions.” Longstone Lighthouse, the subject of this rarely available image, features in Dean’s film Disappearance at Sea II (1996). It is a still-active lighthouse built in the 19th century off the Northumberland coast of England and is best known for the 1838 wreck of the paddle steamer Forfarshire and the heroic role of Grace Darling, the lighthouse keeper’s daughter, in rescuing survivors. Tacita Dean was born in Canterbury and studied at Falmouth School of Art, the Supreme School of Fine Art, Athens before gaining her MFA Painting at the Slade School of Fine Art, London. Her commissions have been featured in the Turbine Hall of Tate Modern, London (2011), Documenta 13 in Kassel (2013), and biennales in Venice (2013) and Sydney (2006, 2019). In 2018, she had three solo exhibitions (Still Life, Portrait and Landscape) in three major public spaces in London simultaneously (the National Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery and the Royal Academy of Arts).
