Peacock are delighted to present a series of 9 new prints made in direct collaboration with Tom Hammick and Glyndebourne.
Tom Hammick is Glyndebourne’s Associate Artist for 2021-2022. Hammick (b.1963) is a British painter and printmaker. Hailed as a ‘visionary artist’, Hammick’s works are informed by a reverence for opera, nature, poetry, cinema and myth, woven together with personal memory, and his mesmeric use of colour, vivid outlines and expressive mark-making.
‘How can I possibly compete with music and the human voice, with the conjuring tricks of stage light, and the drama of lives lived to extremis unfolding through choreography? It has been such a delicious thing to try and do nevertheless, and to have this space to show you the results of my efforts.’
– Tom Hammick
There are 6 posters representing each opera and concert series being staged throughout the Glyndebourne Festival 2021 Season as well as 3 posters representing each opera being staged throughout the Glyndebourne Tour 2021 season.
