Bradford Artists in Hamm
Hamm is Bradford's twin town. As part of the cultural links between the
towns, there was a visit and exhibition of artists from Hamm in Cartwright
Hall, Bradford. I was delighted to have been chosen as one of 7
Bradford's artists to visit and show work in Hamm.
Welcome to my website. I am an artist and
gallery owner, living and working in Bingley, West
Yorkshire, in the UK.
The Bingley Gallery shows an ever changing and evolving collection of art
work. The ground floor area shows the currently featured exhibition,
and changes completely every few weeks. The upstairs area shows a
selection of Jane's and other artists work.
The Bingley Gallery -
Highlights
I am really excited. I have a show of my Flower
painting on at the gallery at the moment. Full of Spring colours and nature's
optimism. Based on a substantial body of work that is completely new or that has
never been seen locally before, together with some of my favourites of the genre
from my past collections.
Then later, in July, my friend June Russell will be
coming to The Bingley Gallery, with paintings and prints based on City and its
role in peoples lives. And following on from her, Jude Levin returns with her
large oil on canvas work, looking at moorlands and solitude.
David Greenwood's exhibition has now finished, but some
of the work can still be seen in the Upstairs area. Back in October, The Bingley Gallery ground
floor featured Norman Bevan's "New Work". It was
another amazing success, with only 3 of the pictures remaining, which are still
displayed at the gallery, joining work
from my recent "New Janescapes"
show.
On Sunday September 27th I was on the 4th
Plinth
in Trafalgar Square!!
Whilst there I was raising funds for the
Bradford Burns
Unit. Read below for more.
My June 2009 show at Duncan Campbell Fine Art
in Kensington has now finished. In case you couldn't get to the gallery, I
have put some pictures from the exhibition here.
Every time I see a tulip fully open or a brave snowdrop pushing its way
through black soil I feel compelled to speak about it. This is a collection
of flower paintings about my thoughts. They are painted mainly in water
colour but other media tend to creep in - they very often start in a
representational way and become more abstract as I lose myself amidst their
splendour.
"I am a painter and fine art printmaker based in Bradford. I love cities,
particularly the one that is my home, and I take them as a starting point
for my work, which explores the role that landscapes play in the lives of
those who live in them."
"A show about moorland; peace, solitude and conservation of the land."
" I am absolutely delighted to be doing this show at the Bingley Gallery.
My work has been collected internationally for over 20 years but lately I
have come home to study the local landscape only. This exhibition is a
collection of recent paintings inspired by vast areas of moorland. They are
contemplative paintings, oil on canvas, in response to the changing mood and
weather over the natural land, its abundance of heather, occasional springs
and brooks, distant haze and the untravelled path. In the studio my
professional interest is in light and texture but on a more emotional and
personal level it is just about the inexhaustible beauty of the open spaces
here around us in Yorkshire. "
"This summer, sculptor Antony Gormley is asking the people of the UK to
occupy the empty Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square in London, a space
normally reserved for statues of Kings and Generals. They will become an
image of themselves, and a representation of the whole of humanity. Every
hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days without a break, a different person will
make the Plinth their own."
By an amazing piece of luck, Jane's application to appear was successful,
and she appeared September 27th 2009 10-11am.
The website for the entire 100 day plinth event is The 4th Plinth. You can get a good feel for the event there, but the site has
recently been put in an archive state, so a few features don't work
properly. You can see Jane's page within the site at
www.webarchive.org.uk/wayback/archive......./participants/jane_f
but the video of her appearance has stopped working! You get 10 seconds of
the previous participant and it freezes. We are working on getting it
going again, watch here for news.
"I'm hoping to raise funds for the
Bradford
Burns Unit. If you are able to sponsor me, you can give online at
www.justgiving.com/Jane-Fielder." said Jane. She auctioned the paintings
she did on the plinth (see this on the video), and that with other donations
raised nearly £600 for the Burns Unit.
The Fourth Plinth is the name given to the empty plinth in the north-west
corner of Trafalgar Square in London. It was originally designed by Sir
Charles Barry and built in 1841 to display an equestrian statue. There
were not enough funds available at the time to create a statue and so the
plinth was sometimes referred to as the 'empty plinth'.
Jane was thrilled to have again been
invited to show at
Duncan Campbell Fine Art in Kensington, London this year. This time, as
well as the Janescapes, she showed her Life drawings and Flower
paintings. The show is now over, but you can see selected work
below
She has also been asked
to show 'a winter collection' with Duncan at a later date.

and an
interesting mention in an article in the "Scotland on Sunday" paper,
in an interview with well known poet and novelist
Sophie Hannah.
Sophie's new novel, The Other Half Lives, is set in the world of art, and I am
tickled that I am mentioned in the plot, and that the book is DEDICATED to me!
