Sir Winston Churchill: Making Art, Making History
View through Artsy
Can we know a person through their work? Sir Winston Churchill: Making Art, Making History is a rare opportunity to see the largest private collection of paintings by Churchill outside of the United Kingdom, one which has never been exhibited publicly. The general public knows less of Churchill as a painter than as one of the world’s greatest statesmen and Nobel Prize-winning writer. The exhibition asks us to contemplate the role of painting in his kaleidoscopic life.
