Poetry & Magic – Celebrating Anita Seppilli | Opening Night

This exhibition, and the series of events connected with it, celebrate Anita Seppilli’s extraordinary originality by exploring the magical and mytho-poetic topics of her classic study Poesia e magia in the context of contemporary London. Among the works included in the exhibition are paintings by Stephen Chambers RA interpretation of William Blake (Two Black Angels, Scissors and Harvest), Marcelle Hanselaar’s series of etchings Rebel Women of the Apocrypha, Ana Maria Pacheco’s series of large drypoints Dark Event and An Ancient Dark Night Descended on My Soul, and faithful reproductions of William Blake’s relief etchings by Michael Phillips. Also on display is a surrealist-inspired photography and poetry piece, The Sacrilege of Bridges, created by Junko Theresa Mikuriya and Ben Thomas especially for this show.
