Anthony Banks (b. 1988, Cheltenham) graduated with an MA in painting from the Royal College of Art in summer 2016. In his exhibition Geologies, curated by Kristian Day, Banks presents approximately a dozen new and recent paintings exploring notions of landscape, particularly in relation to the British countryside and coastline, and to the history of its depiction by painters during the twentieth century and into the new millennium. With a range of techniques that draw upon naïve, impressionist, post-impressionist, expressionist, abstract and other modernist and postmodernist approaches to paint, like an archaeologist or geologist, Banks excavates through the many layers of painting’s recent history, leaving traces of the different strata within his own canvases.
