Through the Lens: Pictures from a Magic Lantern

Saturday, 21st January 2012 until Saturday, 17th March 2012

In 2009, Penlee House purchased a collection of around 500 Magic Lantern slides, with funding from the MLA/V&A Purchase Grant Fund and Friends of Penlee House.  Originally used to illustrate a lecture, the collections forms a comprehensive photographic record of the history and development of Penzance and the surrounding area through the 19th and early 20th centuries, offering unique images of significant local events, ranging from shipwrecks and fires to major building projects and important celebratory events.  This exhibition comprises a selection of prints from the collection, selected by John Wallis and the Penlee House photographic research group.
Penlee House Gallery and Museum. Morrab Road, Penzance. Cornwall TR18 4HE

Another Cornwall /Une Autre Cornouaille

Saturday, 24th March 2012 until Saturday, 9th June 2012

Both geographically and in spirit, the far west of Cornwall is closer to Brittany than to London, and trading links between the two places stretch back many centuries.  Arriving in 1884, Stanhope Forbes famously described Newlyn as ‘a sort of English Concarneau’, as he and many of the other artists settling here at that time had first spent time in Brittany.  This exhibition looks at the strong links between Cornouaille, Brittany, and West Cornwall, including paintings by much-loved ‘local’ figures such as Stanhope and Elizabeth Forbes, Walter Langley and Frank Heath, together with artefacts and photographs.  Curated in conjunction with Le Musée Departmental Breton, Quimper.
