The WADDI presents RUTH FRANKLIN: Old and New Dreams, a one-woman show of paintings and drawings by British-born, Atlanta-based artist Ruth Franklin, from June 2 through July 2, 2022
Featuring over sixty original paintings and drawings, spanning more than a decade, this is Ruth Franklin's most comprehensive solo exhibition to date. She earned her art degree at Brighton Art School in the 80s. It was the time of conceptual art and the Young British Artists, neither of which interested Ruth, who many consider to be the epitome of a painter's painter. She's always in her studio before dawn, seven days a week. Since emigrating to the US in 1994, her work has been exhibited in galleries from New York to the Netherlands. Readers of Creative Loafing have twice voted her 'best established visual artist' in Atlanta.
