PETER MELLER AND THE GRAPHIC IMAGINATION 15th - 20th April 2013
Few people outside a small circle of friends and admirers know that Peter Meller (1923-2008), an eminent scholar of Italian Renaissance art, was an extraordinary graphic artist. Using the simplest materials and techniques in often brilliantly original ways, he created images that range from the lyrical to the humorous to the powerfully expressive, a visual language and imaginative world as distinctive, rich, and delightful as any in modern art.

MICHAEL SANGSTER
IN THE REALM OF PERCEPTION 22nd - 27th April 2013
REALISM FIDELITY AND METAMORPHOSIS
Michael Sangster writes: If Modernism has been a breaking free from imitation of appearances, I have gone in the opposite direction. I work from observation, use traditional subject matter such as Still Life, and try to reproduce what I see as accurately as possible. I paint the things I am drawn to. In studying reality I find it impossible to ignore any aspect of it; but why would I want to? It is all there, a banquet of infinite variety, and I do not want to miss any of it. There is a sense of building up a complete integrity of experience, a totality made of all the parts. The marks on an apple, the folds in cloth are vital ingredients linking the overall scheme; but despite every effort at objectivity it is nevertheless experience that I am painting. It is not the apple or the jug but my experience of them that ends up on the canvas, and in that experience, without intention or awareness on my part, the things painted change from objects into presences with a life of their own, or so it seems. The element of mystery in painting is something I have always felt to be important.
Michael Sangster studied under Norman Blamey and Ken Kiff at Chelsea School of Art (76-79), and Peter Greenham and Leonard McComb at the Royal Academy Schools (79-82). On leaving Art School he painted for a year in a remote mountain village in Italy. Since then, besides painting he has worked as cleaner, barman and teacher. He has exhibited at: Christies, The National Portrait Gallery, The Royal Academy of Arts, Spink & Son, The New English Art Club, and The McClennan Gallery, Glasgow. In 2012 he was elected a member of the Art Workers Guild.

JOHNNY DEWE MATHEWS Behind the Scenes - Kitchens, Orchestras and Film Sets
For several years JDM has been making drawings and watercolours in kitchens, on film sets and with orchestras. His images capture people working collectively towards a common creative end yet at the same time forgetting themselves and each other, utterly absorbed in the task at hand, whether its cooking, making music or shooting a movie. Intense concentration spliced with exuberant activity results in tautly syncopated compositions crackling with an energy that almost spills over into chaos. The speed of JDMs drawings has evolved from a need, as Mel Gooding has written, to catch at, without fixing, objects and events at the living moment. They match quickness of apprehension by spontaneity of gesture. They imagine the world through the movement of the hand. It is a style that owes much to Dewe Mathews early career as a photographer. The large paintings are created from drawings and watercolours made on location; and a number of the preliminary works on paper are also on show in both spaces.

NOEL PAINE - PAINTINGS 20th to 25th May 2013
An Exhibition of Revealing Italian landscape Paintings
For the past three years London artist, Noel Paine, has been living and working in the hill-top village of Anticoli Corrado in Lazio, fifty kilometres from Rome.
An exhibition of his latest work will be held at Gallery 27 in Londons Cork Street from 20th to 25th May 2013. Anticoli Corrado has a long association with artists, from Corot to Kokoschka. Through Paines dogged determination to get to the heart and soul of this rugged and uncompromising landscape, these new paintings take you even closer to a hidden corner of the Campagna. Twisting hill top roads, embryonic olive trees, overgrown waterfalls, and eccentric farmers gates, all provide unlikely subjects for his concentrated figuration and abstraction.Noel explains, Anticoli provides a landscape of vivid contrasts and intensity. Two elements integral to my work. A place where the contrasts, man-made and natural, change rapidly with the seasons and provide the energy my work requires. Every canvas needs a sense of time. Line, colour, shape and form have always been the starting point for my paintings and in Anticoli, aided by clear-blue skies, endless wild open spaces and pervading silence, I have been a witness to the passing of time and the themes I seek to capture in my work.
This is the first time that Paine has exhibited these paintings in London. The exhibition promises to be an exciting event and should not be missed by anyone interested in serious contemporary landscape painting.
Working drawings, sketches and a series of etchings will be included in the exhibition.
Opening Hours:10am - 8pm
Private View Tuesday 21st May 2013 6pm-9pm

Valentina Corral 27th May - 1st June 2013
Born in Chile in 1963, Valentina began her artistic career studying graphic design in Santiago, Chile. She continued her studies at the Leonor De Amesti Academy and subsequently with Sergio Stitchkin. In 1995 she moved to Mexico. She was selected to participate in an exhibition of new talents Sensibilidad y formas and the success of this exhibition opened the way for Valentina to become an exhibitor at art galleries in Mexico City. Holding her first solo exhibition, Enigmas in London in 2009 she presented a series of works on the human form in oil and on canvas. Following a master class in 2010 with Peter Fleming at Chelsea College of Arts and Design, with whom she continues to work, Valentina began preparations for her second solo exhibition in London Fusion which reflects her own style developed over the years. The work is an intensity of lights and shadows on grey over a base of disparate bodies that challenges the imagination using mature techniques of drawings and oil on canvas. Valentina is a devoted artist using mature techniques that mix several styles and cultural influences and who is strongly inspired by the human body allowing her to develop different techniques and lights in oil on canvas.

TOM LEIGHTON COLLECTIVEVIEW 24th September -6th October 2012
Solo exhibition presented by The Cynthia Corbett Gallery
The Cynthia Corbett Gallery is delighted to announce the forthcoming solo exhibition of new works by artist Tom Leighton.Tom Leightons new works reveal the poetic beauty that can result from painstaking digital manipulation. Leighton has travelled through Europe, Asia and North America, building up an impressive body of photographic images that he then combines to make fantastical landscapes. The resulting works test our instincts. Do I recognise that building? Where are those mountains?
The exhibition title, Collective View hints at some of the many themes of Leightons work. A collective is essentially a group, or something describing the group. Leightons images abound with groups of buildings, people, objects like in Golden Gate or Paris 1. But there is also a strange congruence - collective also means making a whole. Many of the buildings are famous; symbols that allow Leighton to juxtapose themes such as classical civilisation (the Roman Forum) and todays financial sector (Londons Gherkin); work and leisure, city and country.
Classical architecture demonstrates how much the world has changed, and on another level, how ancient buildings have lost their original functions and evolved into tourist sites. Leightons images point at how our landscapes and the buildings within reflect our past, present and futures.

WILLIAM BALTHAZAR ROSE - AN EXHIBITION - 22ND 27TH OCTOBER 2012
EXHIBITION OPENING TIMES: 10 AM 6 PM (PRIVATE VIEW ON TUESDAY 23RD OCTOBER FROM 6 9 PM, ARTIST WILL BE PRESENT) The Brian Sinfield Gallery, Burford, Oxfordshire, is delighted to announce the forthcoming solo exhibition of new works by artist William Balthazar Rose. Painter, sculptor, prize-winning architect, teacher and visionary, William Balthazar Rose is all of these, but this exhibition concentrates on his paintings. These are striking, thought provoking images which delve into the subconscious and mysterious portions of the collective and personal psyche. Many of these images are highly symbolic. They have the ability to shock and disturb and at the same time make you smile dancing chefs, candle lit interiors with humanoid pigs, nudes and trumpet players, white horses and large limbed musicians in tall hats, and big abstracts of extraordinary impact. This is a powerful mix which culminates in work of remarkable creative power. Amongst his private collectors and possibly one of his most avid followers is the renowned chef, Michel Roux Jr. who has five of Williams paintings hanging in his restaurant, Le Gavroche.
Rose was born in Cambridge to a family of intellectuals and artists. He was educated in America where he later taught at Princeton and the University of California. He practiced architecture at top firms on both coasts while exhibiting his paintings in California. He subsequently returned to Europe and divides his time between domiciles in Tuscany and Somerset.
This will be the second exhibition of William Roses work by the gallery and his first major exhibition in London. The exhibition will continue in Burford from Tuesday 30th October. If you would like to receive an exhibition catalogue and invitation to the private view please contact Brian Sinfield Gallery,

Gemma Billington, Solo Exhibition Flowers On The Edge Of Reality 4th 11th December 2012
Born in Co. Kerry Ireland, Gemma came to England in her twenties. She studied sculpture at Newbury College and visual studies at Winchester School of Art. Gemma lives between Co. Kerry and Berkshire with her husband and has three grown up children. The works of Turner, Hughie ODonoghue, Jack B Yeats and Matisse influence Gemmas art. However her main inspiration comes from nature, the changing seasons, the wild Irish seascape to the more tame woodland of Berkshire. Like all true art, Gemmas work is a question rather than an answer: a proposition rather than a statement.
The motif chosen is not the actual subject. The art, its content and purpose are the subject. Raw sweeping strokes of vibrant colour, an immediacy of illustrative mark-making and the avoidance of space or time between the mind and the mark-making, mean that the more we look at these paintings the more we understand them.We feel their sense of urgency, of joy, excitement, their vivid freshness, with no time for preconceived notions. The art is the art and the response is somewhere between the art and the subject. Gemma has exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts and the Bankside Gallery in London. She has shown her paintings internationally, including at the Urban Retreat in Dublin and the Lesley Hellier Space in New York.
