100 Anonymous Art Pieces For 100th Exhibition

More than 100 postcard sized pieces of art by local artists have gone on display at Candie Museum to celebrate the 100th Guernsey Arts exhibition at the Greenhouse Gallery.

The art is nameless to the public, which artist Louise Le Pelley said meant visitors would have no “preconceptions” of the work.

The display also included two “wildcard” entries from Chocolat author Joanne Harris and Sophie Tea, best known for her online series ‘charity shop Friday’.

The art was being auctioned to raise money for Guernsey Arts and is on display until 24 August.

100 artists were asked to depict ‘what art means to them’

The artists who took part were asked to depict “what art means to them” to create their masterpiece.

Ms Le Pelley, who neither confirmed nor denied taking part in the exhibition, said she finds art a great way to communication “without words and across cultures”.

“We just said to these artists, ‘go crazy’, do whatever you want as long as it is authentically you,” she said.

“What’s interesting is there are some artists who like to work with ceramics and so they’ve interpreted it that way.”

The team at Guernsey Arts said they took inspiration for the “current landscape” of the arts.

“[We thought] of how a lot of creatives are under threat from AI being used as a tool to create art,” Ms Le Pelley said.

“We decided to merge these two concepts together to create an exhibition and fundraiser auction, whereby the artists have very kindly donated their pieces and all the proceeds will be going to fund future art projects so we can continue supporting artists for another 100 exhibitions.”
