Here Today, Here Tomorrow: A Response by Art in Motion

As part of our Jerwood Collection exhibition Here Today, Here Tomorrow, we have collaborated with a collective of nine artists from Art in Motion (AIM) to create artworks responding to the work on display from the Jerwood Collection and which develops upon their own interests and creative practice. This collection of nine artworks will be reproduced on fabritac and displayed on the walls along the corridor on Level 2, showcasing unique perspectives and interpretations of subjects and themes that connect these local and international artists across different times and disciplines.

With special thanks to artists: Molly Bates, Helen Beer, Emily Boden, Maisie Fortune, Colin Higginson, Jonathan Barr Lindsay, Betty Sargent, Peter James Sutton, and Katy Tovey.

Jerwood Foundation was established in 1977 by Alan Grieve, CBE for John Jerwood. In 1991, after Jerwood’s death, Grieve became chairman of the Foundation which to date has donated over £110 million in capital and project funding to support the visual and performing arts in the UK.

The purpose of the Jerwood Collection of Modern and Contemporary British art is to give public access to a privately-owned collection and enhance the understanding and enjoyment of this period of British art. Holding just under 300 works the collection is widely accessible through loans to national and international institutions and inclusion on several digital platforms.
