Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa, on the shores of Windermere, is hosting an art talk led by esteemed fine art aficionado, Ben Adams.
The event is slated for November 25, at 2pm, offering an exclusive ‘walk and talk’ tour.
Art enthusiasts can look forward to exploring various oil paintings and watercolours by Ben's acclaimed artist father, Norman Adams RA, while listening to Ben discussing each picture.
The event is a supplement to the hotel's art exhibition which was launched earlier this year.
English Lakes Hotels executive chairman, Simon Berry, said: “This event is a chance for art collectors, experts and enthusiasts to find out more about the work of this celebrated British painter, mural artist, teacher, and stage and costume designer.
“Ben’s presentation will help illuminate the story behind each painting and share some of his father’s thoughts throughout his career. It’s an invaluable opportunity for local art enthusiasts to get a highly knowledgeable, first-hand critique of this highly regarded painter.”
Norman Adams, born in 1927, was born in London and had studied at Harrow School of Art.
While there he won a scholarship to the Royal College of Art, later becoming a professor at the Royal Academy Schools.
Norman passed in 2005.
The Low Wood Bay event is being held in partnership with Lancaster- based Gavagan Art.
Gavagan Art owner, Mary Gavagan, said: “We are thrilled that Ben is giving us his time to provide a greater depth of insight into his father’s work.
“The Atrium at Low Wood Bay is proving to be a popular space to host art exhibitions such as this. A range of paintings in both oil and watercolour are on display showing how this artist was inspired to record his feeling for the landscape around him.”
Low Wood Bay aims to be an art hub frequently hosting fine art displays.
Envisioned as a casual, accessible, and free locale, the Atrium offers high-quality exhibitions to the Lake District residents and visitors.
