Tune in, turn on...
Tune in, turn on, look out:- another artwork by former artist-in-residence, John Upton, has been liberated from the School of Biological Sciences following our plea for hidden treasures in a recent Bulletin.
Dr Oliver Darlington, BIOLS Sub-Dean, recalled seeing the painting in a computer lab. "I'd seen the John Upton mural, Christ's Entry Into Brighton, and recognised the style," said Oliver. He contacted Simon Lane who is compiling a database of University-owned works of art.
The painting, entitled And She Was The Princess, is believed to depict the artist's daughters. Mystery surrounds the painting as it is not on the inventory of University-owned art, although a number of Upton pieces are listed.
- If you spot any hidden treasures please contact Simon on ext 3500.
