Join artist and curator Tim Martin for exclusive insight into the life and work of celebrated painter William Scott, and enjoy an early preview of his bold, abstract work on display in Beauty in Plainness’.

Exhibition curator Tim Martin will talk about Scott’s unique vision and how he took the ordinary and made it extraordinary. Discover his career spanning six decades and how the South West played host to his relationship with Rothko.

As part of the Trust’s Spotlight Loan programme, three major paintings by William Scott CBE RA (1913 1989) are on loan from Tate.
