SUMMARY:Haroun Hayward: Path through Trees at Pallant House Gallery
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition is Haroun Hayward’s first solo institutional show and showcases a new body of work. \n\n\nRooted in his experience studying the Sussex landscape\, Hayward combines ideas from abstract expressionism\, 90s dance music\, rave culture\, graffiti\, and his mother’s South Asian and West African textiles. His vibrant\, hybrid approach blends rhythm and texture\, using oil stick techniques that echo embroidery. \nThis series of new works was inspired by postwar British art by artists such as Wilhelmina Barns-Graham\, Edward Burra\, Ceri Richards\, Paul Nash and Graham Sutherland in the Gallery’s collection\, and which can be seen in the major exhibition British Landscapes: A Sense of Place\, running concurrently with Path Through Trees. \nDeveloped following a joint residency with Pallant House Gallery and West Dean College\, this show offers a bold\, contemporary response to British landscape painting. \nAlongside the exhibition\, Hayward has worked with the Gallery’s Community Programme to create Gathered in the Landscape\, a large-scale collaborative artwork exploring landscape as a shared experience\, which can be seen in Room 17.

SUMMARY:British Landscapes: A Sense of Place at Pallant House Gallery
DESCRIPTION:This landmark exhibition explores how artists from the 18th to the 20th century have responded to the landscapes of the British Isles. Bringing together works by more than 60 artists\, the exhibition reveals landscape not simply as scenery\, but as a powerful expression of memory\, identity and emotion.  \n\n\nSpanning Romanticism\, Modernism and postwar abstraction\, the exhibition traces a rich lineage from Thomas Gainsborough and the golden age of British watercolour to the postwar works of Wilhelmina Barns-Graham\, Barbara Hepworth\, Paul Nash\, and Eric Ravilious. \nFrom quiet lanes and chalk hills to industrial sites and abstract coastlines\, painters\, printmakers and sculptors have depicted places shaped by labour\, conflict and imagination. British Landscapes: A Sense of Place invites visitors to reflect on how Britain’s landscapes have been lived in\, remembered and reimagined – and how they continue to shape our collective sense of belonging and resilience. \nThis exhibition is accompanied by a new illustrated catalogue written by Director Simon Martin\, with contributions from contemporary artist\, Haroun Hayward\, whose exhibition Haroun Hayward: Path through Trees runs alongside British Landscapes: A Sense of Place.

SUMMARY:In Conversation: Haroun Hayward and Miriam O’Connor Perks at Pallant House Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Haroun Hayward and curator Miriam O’Connor Perks as they discuss Hayward’s practice and his new body of work which forms the exhibition Path through Trees (30 May – 1 November). \nIn this exhibition\, Hayward has created a series of paintings responding to his joint residency with the Gallery and West Dean College\, inspired by artists in the collection and the Sussex landscape. \nHaroun Hayward’s vibrant practice celebrates hybridity\, drawing upon a diverse array of influences from Modern British landscape painting and abstract expressionism\, to dance music\, rave culture and graffiti. His paintings lean towards abstraction\, with shapes inspired by the rhythmic connections between sound\, pattern and form\, developed through a distinctive use of watercolour\, oil paint and oil stick. His practice also takes inspiration from his mother’s expansive collection of South Asian and West African textiles\, seen in the unique oil stick technique he has developed to emulate embroidery. \nInspired by the energy and rhythmic structures of acid house\, hardcore and Detroit techno from the 1980s and 1990s\, Hayward’s approach to landscape draws upon the processes of sampling\, repetition and variation found in music production. With both art forms sharing a search for the transcendental\, Hayward has developed a set of processes for handling each section of his works\, allowing layers of technique and texture to coexist within a single piece. \nThis talk is part of our Thursday Late event series. By purchasing this talk ticket you gain free access to our galleries\, exhibitions and drop-in activities from 5–8.30pm.
