We would like to welcome you to our annual exhibition at Thornham Village Hall.

At Art 21 we are a group of friends who meet weekly in the Norfolk village of Dersingham. We have a mixture of both professional and amateur artists. Several of the group are also active members of the West Norfolk Artists Association and contribute to other open exhibitions.

John Walker

The group was originally formed in the year 2,000, hence the name Art 21, being the 21st century. The membership numbers have always been limited to about a dozen to keep the purpose of the group as one of artists working together without the need for committees, officers etc.

The aim of the group is to work and communicate with like-minded accomplished artists in a friendly creative atmosphere and to provide exhibiting facilities for its members. The exchange of ideas and mutual encouragement is an approach which we hope underpins the quality and standard of our work.

Ether by Esther Boehm at Cley 21 – nowhere

The North Norfolk Exhibition Project celebrates their 20th anniversary with

nowhere
not in or to anyplace, not anywhere – nowhere is now here

Exhibition dates: 1 July to 1 August 2021

This year the remarkable North Norfolk Exhibition Project celebrates 21 years with the 20th exhibition, intended for 2020 and realised this summer.

The space under the bridge between Wiveton and Cley was known as nowhere, perhaps because it marked the boundary between two parishes and led at one time to an island in the estuary – another nowhere. Norfolk had a village Nowhere and we can travel down Nowhere Lane. Nowhere presents a challenge, a paradox to play with. For Cley, nowhere is both somewhere very specific and a particular experience – of being now here.

nowhere embraces work that signals our psychological spaces, exhibited here temporarily, but ultimately belonging everywhere and nowhere – work that brings our attention firmly back to the now here.

The 20th exhibition, curated by Amanda Geitner, features work by 50 artists and includes painting, sculpture, textiles, photography and ceramics – a marvellous range of new work addressing themes as diverse as the migration of birds, the movement of the stars and the pure pleasure that can be found in colour and form.

‘I am very proud to be counted amongst the curators of this extraordinary project. The 20th anniversary is particularly special for me. In 2001 I was married in Salthouse Church when the very first exhibition was on show. My father and I walked down the aisle around an installation by Gordon Senior – 20 years on, I am still married and I still love Gordon’s work! I am thrilled that his work also features in nowhere. We are part of a great and vibrant community of artists and curators who have been involved in the North Norfolk Exhibition Project for two decades. Cause for celebration indeed.’ Amanda Geitner

The show is open daily from July 1st to August 1st from 10am—5pm. Entry is free and a catalogue is available. A range of artist-led workshops, talks and events are being organised in compliance with current restrictions.

In May 2019 I opened a small, but perfectly formed, gallery in my garden. Initially I showed my work, but the intention was to open it up to other artists and run workshops. Sadly 2020 went tits up for all of us, so I did not open last year.

I am hoping to open again at the end of May, Covid permitting, and will be happy to see visitors again.

Green Dot Gallery will be open on Saturdays and Sundays between 11am – 4pm, BUT it is best to contact me beforehand in case all days are not possible.
 
Green Dot Gallery is at St. Mary’s Lodge, High Street, Fincham, PE33 9EL.
There will be signs on the railings.
 
Please call on 01366 347841 or email on brendabrown239@outlook.com to avoid a wasted visit.
 
I look forward to seeing you.
Best wishes, Brenda Brown
