About this event

Paintings from the Artist's Studio

Tom Cross was well known as a painter, teacher and writer. He exhibited his work regularly after graduating from The Slade (mid 1950s) as well as holding a number of educational positions culminating in Principal of Falmouth School of Art (1976 – 1987). Following retirement from Falmouth, he continued to write, lecture and paint. One of his most important achievements was the publication of ‘Painting the Warmth of the Sun’ (first published 1984) a book about the St Ives Modernist period that helped towards prepare the ground for the founding of the Tate Gallery in St Ives (opened 1993).

This exhibition brings together paintings covering the artist’s career from his time at The Slade to the late Helford River paintings.

The exhibition is at two venues:

The Hepworth Room, Penwith Gallery Back Road West, St Ives TR26 1NL, Monday – Saturday 10am–5pm, closing 2nd November
Belgrave St Ives Higher Bussow Farm, Towednack, St Ives TR26 3BB, closing 6th Novevember. Please call or email to arrange to visit.
