ROBERT PARKER1st - 6th February 2010
The approach behind this work is an honest struggle to re-create painterly, gimmick-free form that avoids formula and a dreary return to the past, is a radical contrast to the stale devices of the 20th century.

DYNAMIC REALISM The Art of Abbey Walmsley 15th 20th March 2010
This exhibition will bring the new genre of Dynamic Realism to a broader art collecting community. The exhibition will showcase oil paintings and drawings of remarkable Dynamic Realist art by artist Abbey Walmsley. The technical artistic requirements of Dynamic Realism are extraordinarily high, with only 5-7 works being produced a year. Working directly with collectors, Abbey Walmsley has been able to raise significant funds for philanthropic causes whilst providing unparalleled pieces of art to international buyers. The exhibition will bring together the two areas: art investment and strategic philanthropy; a percentage of each piece of art sold will contribute to philanthropic projects chosen by clients. Alongside artworks that have already been produced, commissionable projects will also be highlighted with the core aim of re-establishing the importance of the artist and patron relationship. Clients will have an insight into how dynamic realism can bring their visions alive, whilst providing significant funds to their chosen philanthropic cause.

"SOHO LIGHTS" An Exhibition of Portraits by TRIANA DE LAMO TERRY 19th - 24th April 2010
"I hadn't imagined what Triana's pictures would be like before stepping into her tiny east london studio. What I didn't want to have to say was "my god what's that!". Fortunately, In the shadowed light of a partially curtained small room several large canvasses were propped up in no particular order and I hadn't had to cry out. Instead I was greatly reassured andstruck with awe. The most immediate sensation that coursed through me was, wow, I recognise these portraits, at least the sitters, Charles Dance and Stephen Fry made themselves known without any formal introduction. Calling to mind something I'd heard thirty years ago, "if it's portrait then let's see who it is" (Rex Dunbar). Triana is a young self taught portrait painter, her palette and draughtsmanship are teaming with enthusiasm and dexterous intent. Seeing her standing by her canvasses covered in the speckles and brush marks that are the telling signs of an artist lost to the world and wholly absorbed in their craft was a welcome relief, the works are confident personal and interesting, reminding me of the 1920's in some indistinct but catchy manner. Looking at the portraits throws you into her world of solid strokes, rapid daubs and running paint, out of which she brazenly fashions her sitters into striking animated forms. I am already a signed up member of her growing fan club, the question is why aren't you?" Duncan Ward

Once Viewed from Afar 29th September 3rd October 2009
An exhibition by Sarah Crew and Chris Holman. Working in separate mediums of photography and paint. Both Crew and Holman work in parts of the country designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and it is this that informs the love of the English countryside that is at the heart of this exhibition of new work. The result is a contemplative expression of a space so often viewed from afar but which now, through paintings and the contemporary fine art photograph, is seen in individual close up.
Both artists exhibit contrasting but complementary concerns for the potential demise of this landscape, horrified at the thought that it might one day cease to exist. For Holman, the only recourse is to take refuge in the fiction of a rural idyll whilst Crew confronts her anxiety in the guise of the humorous narrative of animals in search of a habitat, which is discussed in Suburbia. Seen together, these distinct and individual responses to nature encourage the viewer to take time from the frantic pace of day to day living, reflect upon their surroundings and consider the ways in which our life stories are bound to the environments we inhabit.

Recent Paintings by Derek Hare 26th - 31st October 2009
Derek Hare's latest exhibition of oil paintings and watercolours depicting Scotland, Bahamas, Seychelles, Morocco and India. Spending several months each year out of the UK, visiting locations as varied as India, Morocco, Portugal, Bahamas and Seychelles in his search for new material, whilst also preparing work for exhibitions and commissions, keeps Derek very busy. As a painter mainly of landscape and marine subjects, he is always happiest on or near the ocean. Fortunately, he has been able to tailor his lifelong passion of oil painting and combine it with his second love, the sea. In the UK, Scottish and East Anglian coastlines figure strongly in his work, providing dramatic contrast to his more exotic locations. Fine art prints of Dereks paintings are produced and distributed, both as limited and open editions, by several leading fine art publishing companies. Derek Hare is a Fellow of The Royal Society of Arts.
