A MCD Heritage project
A bespoke environment within Tate Britain to honour Walter Richard Sickert, Modernist powerhouse and Jack-The-Ripper suspect.
Sickert’s work, displayed at Tate Britain for the first time in sixty years, is recognised as profoundly shaping British art, both in the avant-garde and ascendency of Modernism over Impressionism.
The environment within which his artworks would hang had to complement, yet not distract from the extraordinary canvasses…and it had to be done in six days.
The work was done, on time and on budget, and the exhibition has been a tremendous success with thousands of new eyes enjoying Sickert at his finest.
Note* The links between Sickert and Jack-The-Ripper are mostly discredited.
