Simon Patterson - The Undersea World and Other Stories: The National Maritime Museum, Greenwich - The Undersea World and Other Stories investigates Simon Patterson’s consistent explorations of the sea, stars and time – themes central to the collections and research at the National Maritime Museum (NMM). The Museum unpacks the material cultures that result from human attempts to find their place in the world, be it mapping the skies above, the ocean depths below, or seeking relationships across time and space. Such structures form frameworks of understanding that are bounded by limits of knowledge and distributed through language. Until 26 October.

Turmoil and Tranquillity - This exhibition will celebrate the National Maritime Museum’s unrivalled collection of 16th- and 17th-century Dutch and Flemish maritime paintings. These seascapes and coastal views of the Stuart Age are of outstanding quality, whilst the Queen’s House itself once housed a studio for featured father and son artists, the van de Veldes. Turmoil and Tranquillity will focus on the emerging genre of maritime art in the Low Countries in the 17th century. The exhibition will highlight the key maritime painters of the period and demonstrates the rich aesthetic and narrative potential of the genre. By displaying both Dutch and Flemish artists, the exhibition will highlight the reciprocal influences within the Netherlands and illustrate the emergence of the seascape as a distinct art form. Fom 20 June 2008 until 11 January 2009.
