In medieval times the two port towns of Great Yarmouth and King\u2019s Lynn were major players in English seaborne trade, the former broadly facing the Low Countries and also focused on fishing, the latter facing the Hanseatic League ports in the Baltic and with onward trade routes inland. <!--more-->Sadly both towns have steadily declined as ports for both trade and fishing and both now have areas of deprivation and poverty. We want to<br \/>\nfocus attention on these two beautiful and historic ports, and to build on and celebrate their cultural strengths by exchanging artworks from one end of Norfolk with artworks from the other, exhibiting five artists in galleries in each other\u2019s port and re-connecting them across a surprising distance: Norfolk is a very large county.<\/p>\n<p>In King\u2019s Lynn, the five artists, from Great Yarmouth, who exhibited at the Fermoy Gallery and the Red Barn were <strong>Katarzyna Coleman, Bridget Heriz, John Kiki, Emrys Parry and Br\u00fcer Tidman<\/strong>. The curators were Keith Roberts and Selwyn Taylor, both ncas trustees.<\/p>\n<p>In Great Yarmouth, the twin exhibition will be shown in The Fisher Patterson<br \/>\nGalleries in the main Yarmouth Library. The selected artists from West Norfolk<br \/>\nare <strong><em>Esther Boehm<\/em>, Kate Giles, Lee Grandjean, Chloe Mandy and Stephen<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Parry<\/strong>. The curators are Caroline Fisher and Chris Mardell, both ncas trustees.<br \/>\nNorfolk Contemporary Art Society has been promoting contemporary art in<br \/>\nthe region for over 60 years and in addition to helping purchase works for<br \/>\npublic collections they organise a rich programme of events, talks and<br \/>\nexhibitions.
