SUMMARY:Williamson Art Gallery & Museum: Williamson Art Gallery: David Clap
 ham: The River Runs Through
DESCRIPTION:David Clapham: The River Runs Through\n6th April – 15th Jun
 e 2024\nWilliamson Art Gallery &amp\; Museum\, Birkenhead\nTwo decades sin
 ce he last lived and worked in Merseyside\, artist David Clapham is return
 ing to Birkenhead with a new exhibition\, The River Runs Through\, at Wi
 lliamson Art Gallery.\nHarrogate-born Clapham lived in Birkenhead Park for
  twelve years in the 1980’s and 90’s\, including six years in Birkenhe
 ad Cricket Club. He made a significant contribution to the arts on Merseys
 ide\, as a Fine Art lecturer at John Moores University for over 20 years\,
  and as a freelance filmmaker working for a variety of broadcast media inc
 luding Granada TV. It was Clapham who invited Yoko Ono to Liverpool to per
 form her famous ‘Music of the Mind happening’ at Bluecoat Chambers in 
 1967. In 1976 he went on to co-found and manage the Bridewell Artists Stud
 io complex\, still thriving today on Prescott St in Liverpool.\nThe River 
 Runs Through includes some of Clapham’s most recent works\, alongside s
 elected pieces from over two decades of development. The recurrent images 
 of water and rivers are unifying themes from different periods in his life
  and different places that he has lived and worked\, including London and 
 Portugal. The exhibition features work in a range of media\, including eph
 emeral large hanging installations which play with transparency.\nAlthough
  they are landscapes based on real locations\, Clapham is interested in th
 e feelings beyond what we see. He says that “I’m looking at nature thr
 ough the lens of history and recollection that sets in motion a series of 
 memories\, such as of a moment in time\, or a particular quality of light\
 , that affects how we live and feel in a place. That series of association
 s represents true reality.”\nThe River Runs Through will run at William
 son Art Gallery 6th April – 15th June.
