Abstract
'Dialogue' was a group exhibition that included Chorlton's
double-sided diptychs 'Quinconces' and 'Across the River', four
large paintings on paper suspended from the roof, and the
'Bordeaux Sequence', a series of small paintings. All were
developed from images of Bordeaux. Derived from old and
new photographs, they create a “filmic” walk around the
city, to filter the tourist gaze through individual experience
and the act of making. The invited exhibition built on previous
exchanges between artists in Birmingham and Bordeaux. The
participating artists, the Dialogue group (Graham Chorlton,
Myfanwy Johns, Peter Grego, Joss Burke and Tom Ranahan),
were asked to create new work as a response to Bordeaux for
the 2010 Art Chartrons Festival. They were given the Halle de
Chartrons, a 19th century market hall, to create the keynote
exhibition for the festival.
