Early life and education

Jeremy Gardiner was born in Münster, Germany. He was educated at Newcastle University, UK (BA Hons in Fine Art, 1975–79) and the Royal College of Art in London (MA in Painting, 1980–83), where he was awarded a John Minton Scholarship.[10]

Work themes

Gardiner seeks to capture the genius loci or a sense of place, with his artworks having been compared with those of Paul Nash and Graham Sutherland.[11] His paintings are the product of a long engagement with coastal landscapes in Britain.[12] He has continued the approach to landscapes of 20th-century St Ives modernist artists such as Peter Lanyon, Ben Nicholson, and John Tunnard.[13] Gardiner's landscape subjects have included locations from the Jurassic Coast,[14] [15] especially in Dorset, and the coastline of Cornwall,[16] in southern England.

Jeremy Gardiner's work Purbeck Light Years used hybrid techniques combining computer animation, painting and drawing, and immersive virtual reality.[17] Gardiner also worked on a project Light Years Coast, a virtual recreation of the Jurassic Coast in Dorset.[18]

Fellowships, grants, and awards

During 1984-86, Gardiner was a US Harkness Fellow in the MIT Media Lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States.[19] [20] Also in 1984, he was awarded a UK Churchill Fellowship.[21]

Gardiner was the winner of the 2003 Peterborough Art prize for the work Purbeck Light Years.[22] In 2013, he was awarded The Discerning Eye ING Art Prize for the work Pendeen Lighthouse Cornwall.[23]

In 2017, Gardiner was awarded a Senior Fellowship by the UK Higher Education Academy, in 2020 he was awarded an Arts Council England Grant, and in 2022 he was awarded a British Council UK-China Connections through Culture Grant.
