Details

A portrait of filmmaker Ken Loach by Richard Twose, an artist based near Bath, will go on show at the Bath & North East Somerset Council-run Victoria Art Gallery from 2 October 2018.

On loan from the artist, the large (200 x 150 cm) picture was a follow-up to a portrait commissioned by Oxford University. During the sittings, the men shared many conversations about politics and football, Loach being a very keen supporter of Bath City FC. In the picture, the bird is a reference to Loach’s film Kes and the three-legged dog is a motif that Twose spotted in several of Loach’s films.
