3 HELLO This winter there s a wealth of opportunity for visitors to look differently at the world. We welcome an ARTIST ROOMS exhibition by influential British artist, Richard Long. Richard uses natural materials to explore the relationship between natural forms and the landscape. We hope visitors will make a ready connection between this exhibition and our natural history collections to be inspired by nature. At Pickford s House, the Energetic programme will examine how the extraction of fossil fuels and use of energy shaped Derbyshire s landscape, society and culture. Photographs, artwork and objects, curated by our team together with University students, show how we might adapt to more sustainable forms of energy and climate change. Complementing Richard Long s response to nature will be an exhibition of work by Marion Adnams, the Derby-born surrealist. Adnams was little recognised in her lifetime but her work is in many public collections in the UK. This will be the first retrospective of her work, which is both curious and dream-like, and draws on a particular vision of nature. If these exhibitions point to a connectivity of humans and the natural world, our new permanent display Your Place in The World is all about a common human condition. The gallery is a timely reappraisal of our World Cultures collection featuring material from Asia, Africa, the Americas and the Pacific, and its presentation has involved hundreds of people from around the city. This winter there are plenty of opportunities for visitors to have their say about how these objects make them think, feel or do. The creation of a new Museum of Making at Derby Silk Mill reaches a key milestone, as last month it was confirmed that all 16.4m of funding for the project is now in place. We re really looking forward to building a unique museum which will be inspired by the makers of the past, made by the makers, empowers the makers of the future. Whether it s nature or the human-made - at Derby Museums there is a world of discovery on your doorstep. Executive Director, Derby Museums Trust 3
4 RICHARD LONG ARTIST ROOMS DRAWN FROM THE LAND 2 December March 2018 ADMISSION: Give What You Think Influential British artist Richard Long (b. 1945) makes art based on the action of walking in the natural landscape. Since the 1960s, he has created works in remote regions in Britain and all over the world, which are documented by photography or words. He has used maps, drawn lines, and taken photographs to articulate processes of measuring time and space. This exhibition, drawn from the ARTIST ROOMS collection, is an opportunity to explore the artist s radical re-thinking of art and landscape, set against the backdrop of Derby and the Peak District. The ARTIST ROOMS collection of modern and contemporary art is displayed across the UK in solo exhibitions that showcase the work of more than 40 major artists. The touring programme gives young people the chance to get involved in creative projects, discover more about art and learn new skills. Since 2009, 40 million people have visited more than 150 displays at over 75 museums and galleries. Jointly owned by the National Galleries of Scotland and Tate, ARTIST ROOMS was established through The d Offay Donation in 2008, with the assistance of the National Heritage Memorial Fund, Art Fund, and the Scottish and British Governments. The ARTIST ROOMS touring programme is delivered by the National Galleries of Scotland and Tate in a partnership with Ferens Art Gallery until 2019, supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, by Art Fund and by the National Lottery through Creative Scotland. 4

8 EXHIBITION THE FIRST MAJOR RETROSPECTIVE OF MARION ADNAMS WORK SINCE 1971 Marion Adnams - A Singular Woman 2 December March 2018 ADMISSION: Give What You Think Marion Adnams was born in Derby in 1898 where she remained, for the most part, until her death, aged ninety six. During the course of her long life, she forged a reputation as a painter of deeply distinctive and dream like visions inspired by the Surrealist movement. Adnams exhibited almost continuously in London and many regional art galleries from the late 1930s and examples of her work can be found in numerous public collections. Despite this, her work is largely forgotten today. This important exhibition brings together the full and diverse range of her art for the first time in almost fifty years in a bid to recapture the legacy of this most remarkable artist. This exhibition was made possible with support from Art Fund. This exhibition was curated in partnership with Val Wood, independent researcher, and Teresa Forde, Senior Lecturer in Film and Media at the University of Derby. 8
