About Experience Wakefield
Experience Wakefield is a brand that offers a unique and engaging cultural experience in the heart of Wakefield, West Yorkshire. One of their current highlights is the large solo exhibition dedicated to Hurvin Anderson's Barbershop paintings, showcasing the largest and final work in the series. Hurvin Anderson, a renowned artist born in 1965, has spent the last 15 years exploring various painting styles and genres through the lens of the barbershop setting.
From figuration to abstraction, still life to portraiture, he delves into themes of memory, identity, and nationhood. This exhibition at The Hepworth Wakefield provides a comprehensive presentation of the Barbershop series, featuring works from 2006 to the latest creations in 2023. Visitors can also explore Anderson's formative influences, as he has curated a display of related works.
Don't miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in the evolution of Anderson's artistic journey. Entry to the exhibition is £12, with discounts available for members, Wakefield District residents, and under 18s. Explore the rich cultural offerings of Experience Wakefield today!
