Catalogue to accompany Kurt Jackson's 2023 exhibition RNLI Cornwall at the Jackson Foundation Gallery, St Just.
In this body of work, leading contemporary artist Kurt Jackson celebrates the lifesaving efforts of the RNLI through an ambitious new series of paintings, installation and mixed media work.
RNLI Cornwall features over 75 paintings varying in scale from postcard sized pieces to large canvasses measured in metres that capture the familiar sight of the blue and orange of the charity’s lifeboats nestled into Cornish harbours and coastlines, and lifeguards at the centre of Cornish beaches scenes.
A selection of the paintings is of the old Penlee lifeboat station which Kurt has captured as it was left after the disaster in 1981, a poignant reminder of the sacrifice made. Click here to see the paintings and find out more about the Penlee Disaster.
One of the paintings from this exhibition, Sennen flowing tide has been donated by Kurt Jackson to fundraise in aid of the RNLI.
