For anyone interested in a gifted, neglected 20th century artist (thoroughly trained at the Kent Thanet School of Art and subsequently the renowned London Central School of Arts & Crafts), this retrospective art selection should provide a fascinating link to the post-WWII period of English art. This selection includes Maggie’s early post-war years. These include pen/ink advertising and magazine/book illustrations. Early Watercolours include an unnamed London bridge and paintings done in France, 1947. In the 1960’s Maggie began painting in oils. This coincided with her semi-abstract works inspired by storm-blasted trees. Concurrently, her ‘romantic dream fantasy’ period also began, resulting in many outstandingly creative works. These latter concerned the darkness of loss and separation. Maggie’s imaginative work also included illustrations for projected children’s books. Maggie’s lino-cut work is represented here in its impressive exactness. Her pastel work is notable for its engaging incisiveness. As well as landscape oils, Maggie’s work offers vividly recognisable children’s and adult’s portraits. Examples of her house commission paintings demonstrate Maggie’s assured handling of architectural structure. Her last oil works often dealt with inner desolation. For instance, Maggie’s striking oil picture: The Widows. Influences are found in the work of Graham Sutherland, Paul Nash, Rene Magritte and Max Ernst. Important Central School teachers such as John Minton and Bernard Meninsky can also be detected as influencing Maggie’s evolving artistic craftsmanship.

Selected as a Book of the Year 2017 in the Guardian. 'Maggie Nelson's short, singular books feel pretty light in the hand... But in the head and the heart, they seem unfathomably vast, their cleverness and odd beauty lingering on' Observer. In 1969, Jane Mixer, a first-year law student at the University of Michigan, posted a note on a student noticeboard to share a lift back to her hometown of Muskegon for spring break. She never made it: she was brutally murdered, her body found a few miles from campus the following day. The Red Parts is Maggie Nelson's singular account of her aunt Jane's death, and the trial that took place some 35 years afterward. Officially unsolved for decades, the case was reopened in 2004 after a DNA match identified a new suspect, who would soon be arrested and tried. In 2005, Nelson found herself attending the trial, and reflecting with fresh urgency on our relentless obsession with violence, particularly against women. Resurrecting her interior world during the trial - in all its horror, grief, obsession, recklessness, scepticism and downright confusion - Maggie Nelson has produced a work of profound integrity and, in its subtle indeterminacy, deadly moral precision.
