Face to Face – Photographs by Helen Muspratt
The early twenties saw the establishment in Swanage of a thriving artistic community led by Francis Newbery, the newly retired Head of Glasgow School of Art. Helen Muspratt moved to Swanage in her late teens and met Newbery, who encouraged her to follow her dream of becoming a photographer. He persuaded Helen to study photography at the renowned Regent Street Polytechnic. When she graduated, Newbery designed a photographic studio for the rear garden of her newly acquired premises on the Institute Road.
Helen returned to Swanage throughout her life and remained friends with the art colony gathered together by Newbery in the 1920s. This exhibition will explore Helen’s life and work, her inspirations, successes and influences, and her life long relationship with Dorset.
