Abstract

Billingham's photographic work 'Snowman,' (2009) was exhibited in 'Material Thinking', The Lightbox, Surrey, (20 July - 13 OCT 2024) curated by Prof Angus Pryor. Material Thinking explored The gallery's Ingram Collection as a historic context for artists working today. The Ingram Collection is one of the largest and most significant publicly accessible collections of modern British art in the UK, founded in 2002 by serial entrepreneur and philanthropist Chris Ingram. Material Thinking was comprised of works from the gallery's Ingram Collection and works from researchers and lecturers at University of Gloucestershire's Fine Art Programme. All works were selected by Angus Prior, Head of School for the School of Creative Arts at the University Gloucestershire. Staff works shared a practice led approach where discoveries are made through making, treating materials as active participants in the artistic process. The exhibition aimed to open new conversations with artists who use varied, unusual, or unexpected materials and methods to share a better understanding of what it is to make things, between disciplines and across generations. The show comprised of over 50 pieces in mediums ranging from sculpture, painting and prints, to photography, film and installation. Besides Billingham, artists included Andrew Bick, Barbara Hepworth, Eduardo Paolozzi, Elisabeth Frink, Olivia Bax and others.
