3rd-24th May: Ian Jarman: Recent Work; Ground Floor Gallery. Ian Jarmanâs most recent solo exhibition will feature his signature mixed media pieces as well as his much admired oil paintings on board portraying the iconic urban landscape of Manchester and tranquil scenes of the Suffolk & Scotland coast. Particularly in his Manchester paintings, Jarman aims to convey the energy, vibrancy and atmosphere of an ever-changing city that he has known since childhood.

5th â 26th April 2013
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Colin Taylor has recently exhibited in New York and Cologne, Germany, and will be showing work in Washington DC, USA and Calgary, Canada next year. His drawings and paintings are created quickly, relying heavily on instinct and the artists own experiences of the extreme landscapes he is capturing.
Chris McLoughlin paints all of his paintings on the spot or âen plein airâ and has currently been working in locations such as the Lake District and the Lancashire coastline. He describes âdodging the rain, the snow, the wind, broken easels, frozen paint and numerous flat tyresâ in order to produce a number of en plein air studies, which will be shown in this exhibition.
Matthew Thompson has recently exhibited in London and now has 4 pieces on permanent display at the new Manchester Metropolitan University Business School. Matthew was also nominated for the ÂŁ10,000 Valeria Sykes prize. With around 232 applicants, the award aims to showcase the talent of the regionâs young painters, and is ope... [ Read all ] |
