Don’t miss...

the rst exhibition dedicated solely to the landscape sketches of famous nonsense poet Edward Lear, entitled Moment to Moment. Lear is best known for his limericks and poems but has also been recognised as ‘the nest bird artist there ever was’ by David Attenborough. His artistic output ranged from botanical illustrations to nished landscape paintings. A nomadic gure, he led an isolated life to conceal his epilepsy – which carried great social stigma at the time – spending more than 50 years travelling and making over 9,000 pictures as he went. The exhibition runs from 9 September to 13 November 2022 at Ikon, Birmingham.
