More about Beecholme


Beecholme is also the first postwar "mixed development" housing scheme in Hackney, with a mixture of houses and flats with the taller block having five storeys and containing one-bedroom and bedsit accommodation. It is featured in Volume 15 of Hackney History and was the site of Beecholme House, the family home of Maj. John André (d. 1780), who was executed as a British spy in the American War of Independence.

"OF THE LAND"

30 JULY – 30 AUGUST 2009

Private View – 6-9 Thursday 30th July

Email: information@vulpesvulpes.org

OF THE LAND brings together a series of contemporary images from a select group of current practising artists and recent graduates from the Royal College of Art MA and Wimbledon BA courses. The artists include Rachel Potts, Mette Juul, Robin Friend and Oliver Fuke.

Rob Eagle, a graduate of the Royal College of Art sculpture MA, has curated the show based on his outlook of the everyday world and the peculiarities of culture that affect us all, whether knowingly or otherwise. This is a body of work by artists that have achieved recognition through their descriptive narrative of the landscapes and cultural material that inform our understanding of the world we inhabit, a celluloid-inflected land of pictures.

The work has developed through the artists’ journeys and represents the emergence of each of their personal endeavours. The humorous, the banal, the inquisitive and even the exotic are identified in the work, providing encouraging and uplifting perspectives to be experienced by all who view them.
