British Spirit – AOP Members Group Online
Exhibition 19 July – 12 September
2012
Excitement is brewing in the run up to the AOP’s first group
themed online exhibition British Spirit due to go live on July 19. Over 100
images were submitted from our membership with up to 40 images selected to
make up the exhibition. Expect to see images
depicting Great British traditions such as good old fish &
chips!. The Union Jack is featured in abundance, as it lines streets
at Jubilee celebrations and even as an accessory to a British Bull
Dog! British quirkiness is revealed with images of British hobbyists
and British customs. Along with portraits of Dame Vivienne Westwood
and Queen Elizabeth II herself waving at the Thames flotilla. In a more subtle manner the exhibition examines the
Olympic site in London with stunning graphic images. It also looks at
portraits of individuals who have migrated to Great Britain by ship.
Curator and
Exhibitions Manager, Rachel Rogers reminds us, “We wanted to show
what sets our country apart, its culture and its people in the context of
this summer’s Jubilee and Olympic celebrations.” The
exhibition, curated from AOP members’ submissions, will be online 19
July-12 September.
