TRAVELLING ART GALLERIES

摘要

TRAVELLING Art Galleries is a film documentary covering the history of railway carriage prints, and is a joint project between Greg Norden,his sons James and Sam, and TV presenter Nick Crane.An initial visit to Yorkshire secured still and aerial camera drone shots of various carriage print locations,including Robin Hoods Bay,Scarborough, Pickering and Whitby.This was followed by visits to London Underground's Northfields and Upminster stations filming 1938 Tube stock; with further visits to Wolverton viaduct, the Llangollen Railway, and the Bluebell Railway.In the film Nick puts under the microscope the artists who drew the carriage prints and also recalls memories of one of those artists,his great-aunt Freda Marston, who exhibited countrywide and was the only female artist commissioned by the LMS, LNER and BR to produce carriage prints and posters.
