Dec 10, 2011 - Mar 18, 2012
Modern Art Oxford presents a collection of works on paper by British artist, Graham Sutherland. Curated by 2011 Turner Prize nominee, George Shaw, An Unfinished World is a reflective exploration of the lesser-known work of one of the most compelling artists of his generation.
 
The exhibition concentrates on Sutherland’s early Welsh landscapes from the 1930s, works created during his time as official WWII war artist, and after his return to Pembrokeshire in the 1970s.
 
George Shaw presents these works through the lens of a contemporary painter, describing them as ‘a lament to the passing and changing landscape, a monument to the earth itself’.
 
An Unfinished World brings together for the first time over eighty rarely seen works on paper from public and private collections across the UK.

Modern Art Oxford presents the first major solo exhibition of British artist Shezad Dawood (b. 1974).

His works often include restaged and reimagined moments appropriated from multiple cultures and histories.
