Artists Talk: John Yeadon - Reflections on National Identity
John Yeadon talks about national identity through landscape painting, in connection with the Recording Britain exhibition and his recent exhibition ENGLANDIA.
John Yeadon believes that there is no such thing as the national character as if it is permanently fixed in the fabric of our cultural DNA. National identity is a myth and Englishness a construct. In his paintings England is the myth.
