Dazzle: Disguise and<br />
Disruption in War and<br />
Art<br />
16 <strong>June</strong> – 23 Sept<br />
Art historian James Taylor is the guest<br />
curator for a ground-breaking exhibition opening at St<br />
Barbe Museum and Art Gallery in <strong>Lymington</strong> on 16<br />
<strong>June</strong> <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
Dazzle tells the fascinating story of how the use of<br />
patterning on warships was introduced in the First<br />
World War to confuse U-boat commanders as to the<br />
speed and direction of the vessels.<br />
The exhibition, featuring works of art on loan from the<br />
Imperial War Museum, National Maritime Museum and<br />
British Museum, as well as regional and private collections,<br />
is based around paintings, drawings and prints<br />
by artists such as Wilkinson, Wadsworth, and<br />
Montague Dawson.<br />
