Celebrating 100 years since the first Surrealist Manifesto
Surrealism attracted some of the most interesting artists of the day whose spirit of revolt can be traced through the intervening years and touches upon many artists working now. It is with delight that CCA Galleries International can bring together a wonderful group of artists who draw out the important threads of the early Surrealists. From reconfiguring the objects of everyday life to turning prescribed ideas about sexuality upside down, choosing to tap directly into the unconscious or juxtapose contradictory elements to create a new reality, to cut up or zoom into the realities of contemporary life. Playing with the semiotics and meaning of things these artists challenge the fictions of truth and the realities of our times.
28 JUNE - 26 JULY 2024
CCA Galleries International is calling for visual artists to participate in the Jersey Summer Exhibition 2024, modelled on the annual Royal Academy Summer Show. The exhibited work is selected by a panel of professional artists and displayed for sale in a group exhibition. The Jersey Summer Exhibition is entering its 8th year and it remains the highlight event in the gallery's calendar. It is an opportunity open to both emerging and established artists.
The gallery welcomes all forms of visual art, such as original prints, paintings, drawings, sculptures, films, and photography. CCAI is open to applications from artists who have connections to the island and are working elsewhere, as well as artists living and working in Jersey.
Each print has been hand signed by Sir Peter Blake CBE and will be sold to benefit Teenage Cancer Trust. A US version will be available to purchase at a later date to benefit Teen Cancer America. The print measures: 67cm x 68cm'Going Home UK ', has been printed at Coriander Studio London using 410gsm Somerset radiant white satin paper, with each image having 22 colours screen printed with a selected spot high gloss varnish.
On 15 March 2024, Mark Knopfler will release a new, special recording of his anthemic 'Going Home (Theme From Local Hero)', to raise funds for Teenage Cancer Trust and its American equivalent Teen Cancer America.

And, in a great honour, the track opens with Jeff Beck's final recording.
Roger Daltrey, Teenage Cancer Trust's Honorary Patron and co-founder of Teen Cancer America (with Pete Townshend), added harmonica, and Beatles icon Ringo Starr is on drums along with his son Zak Starkey, their two drum tracks switching from one to the other, revealing an unmistakable family style. Sting completes an extraordinary rhythm section on bass.
With artwork designed by Sir Peter Blake (The Beatles, The Who, Band Aid, Paul Weller etc), this release is a landmark in rock music history.
