Other Worlds - the final exhibition


Salisbury Library & Galleries
Saturday 1 October to Saturday 26 November 2011

You are invited to join us at the final exhibition of a year long project of four servicemen and four artists. Together they have explored the world of the soldier though the visual arts.

This exhibition throws light on the experience of the serving soldier in modern British society and on the interface between military and civilian worlds by offering art created by the servicemen in collaboration with their mentors, alongside the practising artists’ own responses to the project. It tells the story, not so much of the direct experience of conflict itself, as of the hidden facets of our servicemen’s physical and emotional lives, whether on tour of duty or in civilian life. The result is one expressive, resounding voice concerned with the many faces of conflict.
