Exhibitions, Meetings, Awards and other Events

Exhibited at The Exhibition of the Royal Academy of Arts (Summer Exhibition), 1768-
1927 - 1938
Exhibited twice, three works in all (in 1927 showed paintings and in 1938 exhibited Christopher - Head, cat. no. 1566)

Exhibited at 'St. Francis' and other works in sculpture by Trevor Tennant, 1938
January 1938
An exhibition of 19 works which was described in a review in 'The Times' as the first opportunity to judge his work in 'quantity' - 'Mr. Tennant is open to influences, and both Mr. Epstein and Mr. Moore are reflected here and there, but he has a way of his own which is all the more persuasive by the absence of any attempt to be "different". He is primarily a carver and the most successful piece is 'Madonna and Child' in elm. It is an excellent composition, for convenient comparison a little like a Chinese kwin-yin with baroque tendency, with a continuous flow of movement over the softly realised forms...'
