Great quality of work

THIS year's Bexhill Art Society Exhibition was again very successful. The quality of the work was excellent and there was a healthy mixture of styles from abstract to photographic.

It was held in the Studio at the side of the De La Warr Pavilion, and I must say that the staff made a really good job of displaying the pictures.

However, I find many people asking the same question: “Why is it that the exhibition has to be tucked away in a side room that has no entrance from the main building?”

Visitors have difficulty finding the place. The De La Warr Pavilion was built for the people of Bexhill and we tax payers are supporting the place to the tune of £500,000 a year, I believe.

I like variety and think that displays should represent all types of work. By all means show the modern weird stuff, but give the local artist a fair chance, too. The quality of work at our exhibition merits more consideration.
