Exhibitions

Exhibition by Anthony de Jong Cleyndert

9th - 31st August 2008
A new exhibition by stained glass artist and print-maker Anthony de Jong Cleyndert is the culmination of three years' work and a reflection of visual experiences encountered during the artist's life.

The first was a growing awareness, during his boyhood, of the light in Norfolk landscapes. The second was the excitement generated by the atmosphere and architecture of Florence during a year spent there and finally the response to the familiar surroundings of his home in Hertfordshire. Drawing together the threads of these experiences, and weaving into them the various events and challenges of life, has resulted in this evocative exhibition.

Cleyndert started his career as a painter and printmaker but recognising the close affinity with stained glass, he changed direction ten years ago and has now adopted the medium as a central means of expression.

We are delighted to welcome Anthony back for a second exhibition. His confidence and understanding of the medium is clearly apparent and his work has a depth and beauty that dips well-beyond the surface.

Susan Mathews - Curator

Entry to the exhibition is free.
