A local artist is celebrating the success of an exhibition at the Salford Art Gallery to celebrate 100 years of surrealism.
The exhibition, Omnipotence of Dream, has been curated by Dr. David Hancock to show the importance of surrealism across the ages.
The local artist Dr. David Hancock, will be using the work from fine art students of the University of Salford, as well as Leeds Arts University to provide a modern take on the art form.
The students work will be exhibited alongside originals from the gallery’s collection and celebrate the art form.
The display of work will also includes Dr. Hancock’s solo exhibition, which features many of his surrealist artworks, as well as drawing inspiration from the archive pieces.
The exhibition at the Salford Art Gallery will mark 100 years of surrealism, a movement that was started by Andre Breton who wrote the first Surrealist Manifesto of 1924.
In celebration, Dr. Hancock said: “I’ve been really interested in surrealism for, maybe about the past five years and it’s been something that I’ve been researching.
“I’ve been writing some academic papers on it as well as making my own artwork, which features in the exhibition.”
He continued “I think the links to the university are really key. I think without the university, this project wouldn’t have been able to kind of exist in the way that it does, because I think the students add so much to the exhibition.”
“Their contributions kind of really bring those ideas that those surrealist artists were looking at right into the present.
“I think for a lot of the students, they’re experiencing a lot of those issues now,” he added.
The show will be able to demonstrate work of past and present, as Dr. David Hancock believes that the combination of new work and old makes for a fascinating exhibition that will be free to enter.
