“In his understated way, he depicts a painful psychological reality that his forbearers tried so hard to hide.”
- Hazel Friedman, Ventilator
This season, iArt Gallery Wembley will show ten paintings by Walter Meyer that have never before been shown. Some work has been kept from public view for years, while other work has been recently created. A fascinating journey through a South Africa seen through the eyes of one of the greatest landscape painters of our time.
