SUMMARY:Tony Foster, Exploring Time: A Painter’s Perspective
DESCRIPTION:\nFebruary 21–May 17, 2026, Gallery 120\nBetween 2007 and 2025, Tony Foster embarked on his 19th Journey, building it around a profound and layered theme: time. Across this body of work, he investigates how time shapes the land—from the quick shifts of light and weather, to the slow rhythms of seasons, to the immense scales of biological and geological transformation. As Foster explains, his aim is “to draw attention to the unseen forces that create place.”\nExploring Time brings together a remarkable series of watercolor diaries that capture nature in motion. His paintings reveal signs of change on multiple fronts: geological upheavals, biological cycles and the marks left by human activity. With a discerning eye, Foster records not only nature’s strength and resilience but also its vulnerability, even in landscapes once dominated by industry and later reclaimed.\nIn a world where environmental change is often conveyed through striking images of global warming, Foster offers a different perspective, one that considers Earth’s continual evolution and the visible traces of time’s passage. Organized into four themes: geological, biological, human and the fleeting, this exhibition invites viewers to engage with time at every scale, from the span of a moment to the stretch of millennia, while reflecting on the enduring impact of human presence.\nPlan your visit to see these and other incredible works!\nFeatured Image: Tony Foster Cornish Oak, c200 Years Old, 2020 Photo: Paul Mounsey, courtesy The Foster Museum\n“The work is all about trying to bring to people’s attention the extraordinary nature of the world we live in, its fragility and its complexity, and hoping to evoke a sense that we should protect everything we’ve got.” – Tony Foster\n \nTony Foster, Exploring Time: A Painter’s Perspective is organized and toured by The Foster Museum\n\n\n
