Tony Foster: Fragile Planet - Watercolour Journeys into wild places

9/6/2021



TONY FOSTER AT THE ROYAL CORNWALL MUSEUM

FRAGILE PLANET

Open now until 24 December, Fragile Planet is a major exhibition of watercolors by renowned artist Tony Foster that illustrate the precariousness of wilderness and endangered environments around the world. Sadly, some of the amazing places Tony has been to and painted during his career are no longer there, or have been dramatically altered by the effects of climate change and human intervention.

Fragile Planet focuses on five environments chosen by Tony Foster; Rainforests, Water, Arctic, Deserts, and Cornwall – with information about each theme accompanying a set of Foster’s breathtaking watercolors. The show also highlights the positive action being taken to address climate change by many small charities across the globe. Visitors are then encouraged to reflect on what they can pledge to do differently to help tackle climate change.
