GHISLAINE

HOWARD

Every day since October 2006 Ghislaine Howard has produced paintings inspired by news images featured in the Guardian newspaper.

365 represents a year's worth of these daily paintings and questions whether we are over exposed to images of conflict.

The 365 series of daily images is being shown at the Imperial War Museum North in Trafford [M17 1TZ] from Saturday, March 7 until Sunday, June 21 2009.

Michael Howard has contributed an online catalogue.
Salford Online has a feature on the exhibition and a video interview with Tom Rodgers.

Robert Clark previewed the exhibition in the Guardian Guide:

Sarah Walters has a feature in City Life.
Ghislaine was interviewed about the exhibition by Channel M television and by Allan Beswick on BBC Radio Manchester.

Each week in May Ghislaine will add a new painting to her display of 365 images.

Ghislaine will be giving talks about the exhibition at the museum on Saturday, May 9 and Saturday, May 16 at 2.15pm.

The Empty Tomb

The Empty Tomb

The Stations of the Cross / The Captive Figure returned to Liverpool Anglican Cathedral in 2008 as part of the Liverpool Capital of Culture celebrations. Ghislaine's culminating work for the Stations of the Cross series, The Empty Tomb, played a central part in the Easter Sunday service at the cathedral.

BBC Liverpool has a feature on The Stations of the Cross here.

The Stations of the Cross / The Captive Figure was shown at Exeter Cathedral from February to May 2009.

Salisbury Cathedral

The Stations of the Cross / The Captive Figure will be on display at Salisbury Cathedral in March 2010.

"Howard's art derives its strength from a visceral
sympathy with the human condition
expressed through the primal medium of paint"

- Laura Gascoigne, The Tablet
