Unhung Heroes – Art PV

BRAND NEW ART SHOW! Come and meet the local artists … All work is for sale! Curated by Lousie Whitham. Unhung Heroes takes its cue from the 1863 Salon des Refusés, the groundbreaking exhibition created for artists rejected by the official Paris Salon. Among them was Édouard Manet , whose once‑shocking work went on to reshape modern art. A charming detail from that moment in history: the Refusés drew bigger crowds than the official Salon. People flocked to see the “rejected” works — and many of those overlooked artists ultimately became far more celebrated than the ones who were accepted.
