1998 Bridport Arts Centre exhibition with drawings by Polly

Post by Pollyphoniac »

a while ago I acquired (by second-hand) a booklet about an exhibition at the Bridport Arts Centre back in 1998. Polly took part with three of her own drawings in that exhibition and one of them is featured in this booklet, along with some other works of art (by other people) from that exhibition and also some articles, among which a short piece written by Polly herself and also a two-page interview with Polly and Sid Allen.

the following images are of all pages with Polly-related content.

especially noteworthy (on the back page) are the names of those two (of Polly's) drawings that aren't featured in this booklet: "Horses" and "The Slow Drug" - how I wish to see those!

That was really interesting to read through. I love sillier, more laid back interviews like that, and that picture of Polly and Sid is adorable.

Thank you for sharing! :smile:

Thank you, Pollyphoniac.

'Return of the Native' being the title of a novel by Dorset man Thomas Hardy, of course.

Romario11, in your archive one pic ("2.jpg") is pretty big, and all others are quite small - is that supposed to be like that? [Just checkin'.]
