The latest Sunday Telegraph traces the history of Ruth Borchard Collection from its inception to its present installation at Northumbria University Gallery, Newcastle upon Tyne.
The article quotes Ruth Borchard’s own diaries: ‘One day, mounting up the stairs in our house, I was struck by the idea that introspection in painting meant self-portraits. I vividly remember the moment, even the step, where I suddenly saw our landing crowded with paintings, all sizes, types, styles, media. And this is exactly what has come to pass.’
