Start time: 14:00 Join Peter Beckingham for a journey through 2000 years of great art in the county. Sussex-based writer and speaker Peter Beckingham will take his audience on a journey through 2000 years of great art in the county: from the beautifully-preserved mosaics at Bignor and Fishbourne, and medieval frescoes in tiny South Downs churches, to the vivid paintings of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant around Charleston and Firle. Peter will also look at the influence of Arundel on important British illustrations and paintings, and describe the influence of the town and county on English Masters Constable and Turner. In his wide-ranging but accessible, non-academic talk Peter will finish with the impact of Sussex on famous 20th century landscape painters including Eric Ravilious and Paul Nash. Peter will be selling his books at the end in aid of a Motor Neurone disease charity.
