Gutters of Gold

30 years after Stephen Tennant's death, Volker Eichelmann has visually resurrected the decadent socialite's famously unwritten novel Lascar: A Story You Must Forget as a publication that brings together his own collages and paintings alongside a rare selection of Tennant's neglected oeuvre. In 'Gutters of Gold reflections' on landscape-gardens and water-features, Greek antiquities and ruination, horticulture and interior decoration unfold in a succession of evocative scenarios conceived by Eichelmann under chapter headings such as "Weekend in Valmouth", "Mme d'Arpajon gets Drenched" and "Dinner at van Storck's". With Tennant figuring amongst a number of historical and fictional protagonists who populate Eichelmann's work, 'Gutters of Gold' will provide a unique opportunity to appreciate the wider conceptual remit of Eichelmann's practice. AUTHOR: Volker Eichelmann lives and works in London. He is Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Kingston University. His work has been shown extensively in solo and group exhibitions worldwide.
