The fortunes of painting wax and wane, at times carry the stigma of it being perceived as a traditional art-form and “of the past”. It has suffered the effect of sidelining by more currently “fashionable” art-forms of film, video and performance. Katie Allen's 'Nature Illuminated' at Mission Gallery and the Beep Wales international painting prize organised by Elysium Gallery at Volcano, demonstrate that painting is well and truly alive.

You are invited to the painting seminar at Mission Gallery on the position of painting in contemporary arts practice through an open discussion between an audience of practitioners and the public.
