Throughout his career, Tom Phillips has woven together many diverse modes of practice, including painting, sculpture, text, music, photography, video, design, and site-specific sculptural installations. A new exhibition at Flowers Gallery gathers together a selection of works produced across five decades with particular focus on works in three dimensions, tracing the themes, systems and processes that have often corresponded and converged within Phillips’ durational projects. The exhibition marks Tom Phillips 80th birthday and celebrates his long association with Flowers Gallery where he first showed in 1970. A handsome catalogue, with an introductory text by Bill Packer accompanies the exhibition.

You are warmly invited to come and meet the artist at the Private View on Thursday 25th May 6pm - 8pm
