IN EXTREMIS: Landscape Reimagined

78 Derngate Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1UH

We are very pleased to be hosting this exhibition across all our galleries here at 78 Derngate. Simon James is a multi-disciplinary artist who explores themes of nature and the urban environment in mostly abstract or semi-abstract forms and takes inspiration from his surroundings in the cities of Asia and Europe or, more recently, the English countryside. James trained in Fine Art and Printmaking at London’s Royal Academy and Royal College of Art and he now works across the spectrum from painting and drawing to video and photographic works, having adopted the expressive potential of digital media while working as a designer and independent artist in Asia. Having held solo shows in London, Berlin, Singapore, Shanghai and Tokyo, whilst also designing for TV, publishing and the music industry, Simon was also a university lecturer in multimedia and photography.  www.simonjames.com

LEVELLERS

Roadmender 1 Lady's Ln, Northampton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom

Revered Brighton group the Levellers are famed for their high-tempo live performances. Approaching their 40th anniversary in a few years, the Levellers are still a must-see live band and a force to be reckoned with.   Their seminal platinum-selling album Levelling The Land redefined the UK’s musical landscape during the summer of 1991 featuring hit singles including One Way, 15 Years and Far From Home. Their most successful album was the number #1 Zeitgeist which celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2025. Most recently they released new studio album ‘Peace’ in 2020 which entered the UK Official Album Charts at #8 – the band’s highest charting entry since 1997’s Mouth to Mouth reached #5.   Having thrilled fans and critics with two highly acclaimed ‘Levellers Collective’ acoustic tours and albums in recent years, the Collective will embark on a new 17-date tour of theatres and venues around the country in March 2025 to coincide with the release of a live album & DVD from a show recorded at London’s iconic Hackney Empire in 2023.   Levellers will turn back to all electric shows for the rest of 2025 at festivals and venues including their own Beautiful Days festival in Devon.
