THE PAUL MELLON CENTRE REGIONAL MUSEUMS

In November 2012 the Paul Mellon Centre launched anew initiative aimed at gaining greater insights into thecollections, displays and exhibitions of British art inBritish regional museums. Since November I have beenmaking a series of visits to regional museums (on averagetwo a month), listening to curators talk about thechallenges that face them and informing them, in turn,about the role of the Paul Mellon Centre in providingsupport and opportunities for sharing information andnetworking. To date I have focussed on smaller regionalmuseums. I began in November with visits to Leamington Spa Art

Gallery, Compton Verney and Turner Contemporary,Margate. In December I visited Christchurch Mansion,Ipswich, and earlier this year Derby Museum and Gallery,Petworth House, Southampton City Art Gallery, TheHolburne Museum and Victoria Art Gallery, Bath, and theStanley Spencer Gallery, Cookham. Despite the challengesof funding and curatorial resources faced by theseinstitutions, I was impressed greatly by the range ofdisplays, the quality of collections, and above all by thedepth of curatorial knowledge and commitment. Leamington, curated by Chloe Johnson, exhibits a

broad range of British art from traditional local painterssuch as Stephen Bone and Emily Ledbrook tocontemporary artists, Marc Quinn and Edmund de Waal.At Derby, the magnificent collection of oil paintings bynative painter, Joseph Wright, has recent been reinstalledby curator Lucy Bamford. Compton Verney, under thedirection of Steven Parissien, will host this summer a

revelatory exhibition of oil sketches by Constable andTurner from Tate’s collection, which will travel later thisyear to Turner Contemporary, Margate. At ChristchurchMansion, Emma Roodhouse is showcasing a newlandscape gallery, featuring two iconic works by Constableof his parents’ flower and vegetable gardens, while atPetworth House, curator Andy Loukes has just completeda phenomenally successful winter exhibition, ‘Turner’sSussex’. The Spencer Gallery in Cookham, which reliesentirely on voluntary staff, notably archivist Ann Danks,continues to punch above its weight, with a new exhibition,‘Perspectives on Love’, which opened to the public on 28March. Southampton Art Gallery, curated by thepassionate and hugely knowledgeable Tim Craven, housesthe best collection of modern and contemporary Britishart outside the Tate. In Bath the newly revitalisedHolburne Museum hosts an exhibition of Shakespeareanportraits, while the Victoria Art Gallery has recentlyinstalled its first floor galleries with major works byhistoric and modern British artists. In March 2013, we held a small workshop at the Paul

Mellon Centre involving museum professionals fromCompton Verney, the Laing Art Gallery, the Russell-Cotes Museum, Turner Contemporary, Gainsborough’sHouse, and the Holburne Museum, Bath. In thisworkshop, Mark Hallett and I discussed our newinitiative and considered the next steps. Foremost amongthe outcomes was the perceived need for regionalmuseums to share information and develop networks fordisplays and exhibitions. We look forward to exploringthese possibilities in the months and years to come.

Developing and expanding the Library, Archive andPhotographic Archive Collections is an important part ofthe Centre’s continuing improvements to the researchfacilities provided to readers. Alongside the everydayacquisition of new titles for the Library, new material isalso acquired through large-scale donations or bequestsfrom private owners or institutions. All new material isassessed and selected according to the Centre’s collectiondevelopment policies, filling the gaps in our holdingswhile adding depth and richness to the collections.The Centre is delighted to announce the acquisition of

the following collections:

DONATION OF BOOKS BY PETER AND RENATE NAHUMPeter and Renate Nahum, proprietors of The LeicesterGalleries, have very generously donated to the Centretheir large collection of books and exhibition catalogueson British art. The collection is particularly strong on theartists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Stockselection has been completed. Conservation andcataloguing of the materials to be added to the LibraryCollection is about to start so records will begin to beadded to the Library catalogue soon. The Centre isextremely grateful to Peter and Renate Nahum for theirgenerous donation.

JUDY EGERTON ARCHIVEThe family of the art historian and museum curator, JudyEgerton (1928-2012), have very generously donated herarchive to the Centre. Judy Egerton was a leading scholarof Eighteenth-century British art, particularly the worksof the artist George Stubbs (1724-1806). Her careerincluded positions at both the Tate Gallery (1974-1988)and the National Gallery (1988-1998). She was also aSenior Research Fellow at the Paul Mellon Centre(1997-2007). Her archive is extensive, currently comprising 30 boxes

In addition,the library holds approximately 50 books and exhibitioncatalogues on Stubbs together with 20 individuallycatalogued journal articles.
