to Liverpool, opening on 18th November to commemorate the end of the Battle of the Somme. Moving the entire installation and reassembling it inside the ground floor of the Martin Luther King Jnr Building (part of the National Museums of Liverpool) on the city’s prestigious Albert Dock, the exhibition was expanded to 15 paintings and featured five new works of art. Now, in 2018, Scarlett and Marc are showcasing The Danger Tree at Manchester Central Library to mark the anniversary of the end of WWI. Councillor Luthfur Rahman, Executive Member for Schools, Culture and Leisure at Manchester City Council, said: ‘’The Danger Tree paintings created by Scarlett and Marc are truly symbolic and the methods used to bring each piece to life are astounding. “We’re looking forward to opening the exhibition at Manchester Central Library, to recognise those who lost their lives and hope that it will help our visitors to understand and remember a crucial moment in history.” Scarlett Raven said: “It’s a privilege to be bringing The Danger Tree to a venue as iconic as Manchester Central Library.
This exhibition is particularly poignant as we mark 100 years since the end of conflict, and I want to give the centenary due recognition. “I’m inviting people to view painting in a completely different way and hope that viewers will engage with the work beyond the canvas, beyond the wall and beyond the library. I want each piece to become an event in itself - a very personal and intimate event.” The Danger Tree has already touched the hearts and minds of thousands of people; young and old, rich and poor, and this can be substantiated by reading the exhibition’s visitors’ books that contain over 4000 messages of appreciation and remembrance. Some of which are represented on the back pages of this brochure. Washington Green Fine Art is proud to announce a new collection of hand signed, limited edition prints for 2018. Available as either a Giclée or a hand embellished boxed canvas, the four new pieces will also be available to buy as a portfolio set.
