Sax Impey included in 'In Search of the Miraculous'

Sax Impey’s painting and video works are included in ‘In Search of the Miraculous’ alongside Francis Alÿs, Chris Burden, Mat Collishaw, Simon Faithfull, Andrew Friend, Gunnar Jónsson, Antti Laitinen, Jessica Ramm, Carolina Redondo, James Thurgood and Guido van der Werve.

In Search of the Miraculous is an exhibition of international artists, inspired by and marking the 40th anniversary of the voyage made by Dutch artist Bas Jan Ader, who set sail alone in July 1975 in a 12½ foot dinghy Ocean Wave from Massachusetts to cross the Atlantic to Falmouth, Cornwall, disappearing en route.

In Search of the Miraculous includes artists who have not necessarily taken direct influence from Bas Jan Ader but have made works that have a yearning for the sublime, a playful pursuit for new experiences and journeys, or a romantic contemplation of the sea and what may lie beyond the horizon.

Curated by Blair Todd, In Search of the Miraculous take place at Newlyn Art Gallery from 27/6-19/9/2015.
