Robert Amesbury Brooks exhibition at Sandy Hill Arts

Robert Amesbury Brooks exhibition 23rd – 31st August 2025

Robert Amesbury Brooks studied at the Slade School of fine Arts, London the years 1983 to 1987, under the tuition of Norman Morris, Euan Uglow, Patrick George and Sir Lawrence Gowing.

Corfe Castle has become Robert’s muse – his Calleope. A loyal feminine model in one of the most beautiful places in England, Dorset, The Purbeck and the Jurassic Coast a World Heritage Site.

”There she is as a sacrificial offering like Chichen Itza, rolling stones like skulls form the village but the shadows are perennial evidence of its survival not as once it was but as what it is today.People come and go; visitors of the lady who sits majestically are still amazed by her persona. Robert views her with all her drama – Melpomene virtuosity – her history and her influence in the landscape. She stills like an apple and dances to the cadence of the seasons; the artist captivated by her has become her slave.”

We are delighted to be exhibiting Robert’s work at Sandy Hill Arts. He will be including paintings that he has recently made while on site at Sandy Hill as part of his exhibition.
