Notes

An exhibition titled Maternity was organised in 1999, by Gallery K Cultural Events in aid of the Fetal Medicine Foundation. The participating artists worked on the theme of Maternity. Two of the artists, Edward Bell and George Kyriacou, had the opportunity to work from life, thanks to Prof. Nicolaides who arranged for one of his patients from King’s College Hospital to pose for the artists, journalist Katy Bravery. All ten participating artists approached the subject from different angles and their work varied as well as their statements which can be seen in a catalogue, titled Maternity 1999, especially published for the exhibition, with an introduction by Katy Bravery.
