Support for Addenbrooke’s Arts On September 16, 2009, Andrew Lansley, MP for South Cambridgeshire and Shadow Secretary of State for Health visited addenbrooke’s to unveil a painting donated to the hospital’s Lysosomal Disorders Unit David Howarth, MP for Cambridge toured the hospital arts project on August 21, 2009. Following the tour, Mr Howarth said: "This is a really inspiring project. The diverse range of work using many different techniques brightens up the long corridors and public areas of the hospital. The various different pieces are a talking point and it is encouraging to think that a visit to hospital, which in many cases can be a nerve-wracking and worrying time, could be made a little easier by this project. I wish it every success for the future."
Latest Events 7 January to 2 March 2010
Robin & Isobel StempPhotography and Painting Exhibition This month we welcome a combined photographic and watercolour painting exhibition by two local artists, mother and daughter, Robin and Isobel Stemp. The weather, view and Isobel’s emotional response play an important part in how she interprets landscapes. Isobel aims to convey a sense of joy and colour in her loosely applied watercolour paintings. Natural light is essential for Robin’s unusual photography and why many of the images have the time and date they were taken as the titles. Robin creates minimalist interiors in miniature, allowing the natural shifting light onto the scene for its varying colours and intensity. The exhibition is on display as usual in our gallery space on the corridor between the Concourse and Rosie Wards and all the work is for sale.
