Thomas Joshua Cooper (born California 1946) is one of the world’s most celebrated and distinctive landscape artists and photographers. Cooper’s most ambitious project is The World’s Edge – The Atlantic Basin Project, an epic endeavour begun in 1990 to map the extremities of the land and islands that surround the Atlantic Ocean. The Haunch of Venison exhibition, Point Of No Return, marks the completion of Part I of this project, with the first showing of photographs mapping the western, northern and southern points of the continents of Europe and Africa. The exhibition will include more than forty works made in over ten countries including Morocco, Senegal, South Africa, Spain, France and Norway. |
