REDCASTLE ART GROUP EXHIBITION 2023
RAG comes back to Cromarty with a new exhibition celebrating highland painting and more.
Redcastle Art Group (RAG) comprises 15 experienced highland artists who for many years have met on the Black Isle once a month to paint together. Expect to meet the artists and see a vibrant and eclectic exhibition encompassing diverse media and subject matter for all tastes (and pockets).
Please note the exhibition and concert are up a flight of stairs and unfortunately there is no lift.
CONCERT: ROBIN VERSTEEG & CHRISTOPHER JOSEY
In conjunction with the show, there will be an opening-night concert in the gallery highlighting the links between art and music.
Robin Versteeg (piano) and Christopher Josey (tenor) present a recital with an art and landscape theme. In addition to Fauré’s popular “Five Venice Songs” and music by Barber and Respighi, they will perform “Le Travail du Peintre” by Francis Poulenc, an interesting song cycle featuring Paul Éluard’s surrealist poems on seven artists including Picasso, Braque, Miro and Chagall.
Saturday 13th May, 7.30 pm, Cromarty Stables. Interval refreshments.
Tickets £10 (under 16s free) – contact paintbrush@btinternet.com to book. Remaining tickets at the door.
Robin Versteeg is based in Strathspey and is well known as a pianist, conductor and teacher throughout the highlands. He returns to Cromarty Stables with Christopher Josey, internationally renowned opera and concert tenor. Originally from Australia, Christopher lives in Aviemore and is also a busy vocal tutor.
