‘The Power of the Sea: Making Waves in British Art, 1790–2014’, explores the enduring fascination for the sea over three centuries, demonstrating at once a continuity of expression – the attraction for the beauty and vastness of the oceans – and an evolving artistic gaze.

The exhibition take place at The Royal West of England Academy, Bristol from 5 April-6 July 2014 and is accompanied by a fully illustrated book entitled The Power of the Sea: Making Waves in British Art 1790-2014, published by Sansom & Company.
