'A relentless march of energy: Expressionism'

curated by Lloyd Gill

Preview Night 23rd October

Exhibition runs from 25th October till 19th November

This exhibition will represent artists throughout the UK who epitomise expressionism through their use of paint in the sense of capturing energetic movements, thickly applying paint, rough brush strokes all that demonstrate an understanding of the movement of expressionism.

The selected Artists work will have been inspired by several key Artists, including Van Gogh, Bomberg, Baselitz, Auerbach, Golub, Kossoff, Freud and Bacon.

This exhibition will delve into the Artists Psyche through cross-examining their practice against more established artists.

There will be a catalogue for this exhibition that will include the essay written by Lloyd Gill. The catalogue will be available to purchase at the gallery for £2. Funds received will go towards gallery running costs.

There is a £10 entry fee for showing work and 15% commission is taken by the gallery from sold work.
It's a great opportunity for artists to try and sell those small pieces of art work that just seem to be gathering dust in a back room somewhere! Of course, current work is accepted too.

You can submit up to 5 pieces of work for the event. All you need to do is email and let us know you want to be involved and we will email you with more information and also a form to fill in details of your work.

All you need to do then is drop off your work to us on the delivery date (7th October)
