One group of works will explore artists’ depictions the marine environment and the creatures that inhabit it. Another will explore the mythological and the imaginary, with an international group of works depicting mermaids. This includes the celebrated surrealist painting A Siren in Full Moonlight by Paul Delvaux (Southampton Art Gallery) and the startlingly inventive Mermaids series by contemporary Swiss painter Klodin Erb.
Alongside historical works by artists such as Edwardian illustrator Arthur Rackham, 19th century Japanese printmaker Tsukioka Yoshitoshi and German Expressionist master Oskar Kokoschka, visitors will find a rich variety of contemporary work. Stand-out paintings include the mysterious Deep Dive by Tom Anholt and Octopus Veil by Michael Armitage.
At a time of increasing division between and within nations, Undersea will celebrate cultural connections and the pleasures of difference.
Undersea follows Seaside Modern (2021) and Seafaring (2022) in a trilogy of exhibitions curated by art historian James Russell.
