art hew locke interview studio yale

The Yale Center for British Art opens "Passages," the most comprehensive exhibition of Hew Locke's work to date, featuring nearly 50 works spanning three decades. Central to the show is a site-specific installation of Locke's ship sculptures, three of which are suspended in the foyer of the museum's Louis I. Kahn building. The exhibition will travel to the Wexner Center for the Arts and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. In an interview, Locke discusses his studio practice, his ongoing exploration of imperialism's symbolism, and his plans for new bronzes and prints.

At Yale: the commercial empire within the British empire

The Yale Center for British Art presents 'Painters, Ports, and Profits,' an exhibition of 115 items spanning a century of art and history, focusing on the East India Company's commercial empire. The show includes paintings, prints, drawings, books, and artifacts such as a 37-foot watercolor scroll of Lucknow (1826) and works by Indian artist Gangaram Chintaman Navgire Tambat, who emerges as the artistic star with 20 pieces. It also features prints of the company's opium factory and 'The Opium Fleet Descending The Ganges' by Walter Stanhope Sherwill, highlighting the company's role in the Opium Wars with China.
