Looking back at much-loved painter's life
Christopher Hall retrospective at Newbury museum
The Christopher Hall retrospective currently running at West Berkshire Museum features details about this much-loved painter’s life in Newbury and abroad and has a selection of paintings from his studio alongside those from the museum collection. One of the area’s most accomplished professional painters, Hall, who died in 2016, was a regular participant in the Open Studios scheme. Included in the exhibition are a couple of very early paintings, which feature a much flatter style of painting than in his later years. There are a scenes of Newbury and many around West Berkshire in general. Catch it before it closes on July 1.
The show is open from 10am to 4pm, Wednesday to Friday.
