SUMMARY:Kirkby Gallery: Kirkby Gallery: Northern Stone and Peat Smoke by An
 thony Ratcliffe
DESCRIPTION:Kirkby Gallery is delighted to present this new and never seen 
 before exhibition\, Northern Stone and Peat Smokeby artist Anthony Ratcli
 ffe. Anthony is now a full time printmaker after many years lecturing at M
 anchester School of Art. He has prints in many public and private collecti
 ons including The British Council\, the Parliamentary Art Collection\, Man
 chester Airport PLC\, Manchester Royal Infirmary and MMU Special Collectio
 ns.\n\nAnthony works from drawings and material collected on site and has 
 travelled extensively around Britain documenting remote landscape and part
 icularly the way it shows evidence of past land usage\, geology and archae
 ology. He also researches literary descriptions and historical association
 s. All his woodcut prints are hand printed in small editions and the artis
 t works from a studio in Mossley overlooking the Dark Peak National Park. 
 Recent projects across the North of England\, Broken Ground\, Rain Stone
  and Rust and Shoreline and Watershed\, have included book art\, waterco
 lours and poetry as well as large woodcut prints.\n\nThis is the second ex
 hibition by Anthony in Knowsley\, having shown his Shoreline and Watershe
 d exhibition in Huyton Gallery in 2013. This exhibition and collection of
  recent work has involved the artist exploring remote landscape\, in many 
 cases using contemporary poetry and text as a way of focusing on specific 
 locations and features in the more hidden parts of northern Britain. The w
 ork records physical landscape and its relationship with flora\, fauna and
  seasonal elements including the recent moorland fire damage.\n\nThe show 
 will contain large woodcut prints\, watercolours\, drawings and sketchbook
 s as well as material illustrating the technical print process used. The w
 oodcut prints are complex compositions in many colours and each one takes 
 weeks of work to complete. For this collection of work the artist has expl
 ored the North West coast of Scotland\, the Scottish island of Rum\, the N
 orth Yorkshire Moors\, the Yorkshire Dales\, Coniston slate mines and the 
 Pennine hills near where he lives and has a studio.
