Six centuries of works which reveal themselves on a second look. Featured artists include Salvador Dalí, Marion Adnams, George Condo, Grace Pailthorpe, Fiona Rae, Glenn Brown, George Romney and Walter Sickert.
This autumn, The Brown Collection presents Fail We May, Sail We Must, a new exhibition full of works which reveal themselves as you look deeper within them.
Curated by British artist Glenn Brown and his husband and museum co-founder, Edgar Laguinia, the exhibition presents a collection of historic and contemporary paintings, sculpture, drawings, prints and ceramics, featuring spliced collages, double images and elongated and deceptive figures. Full of playfulness and humour, and spanning six centuries, the exhibition illustrates how art can challenge and reveal the workings of the mind.
Unfolding thematically across the museum's four floors, Fail We May, Sail We Must creates new connections between works that are not usually seen together.
