Apartness- 4th Feb 2011
We’ve brought together a group of 7 artists to showcase Pop Surrealism as a genre in our first exhibition of 2011. The exhibition is called ‘Apartness’.
The selected artists are excellent examples of the genre and include three Scottish front-runners; Michael Forbes, and Pamela and Erlend Tait. We’re taking the opportunity to showcase some amazing up and coming UK artists, Tristram Aver, Andrew Ingram and Heart Throb and we’re proud to have the opportunity to show young yet prolific American artist, Matt Dangler.
The works will be large, bright, complicated, dark, funny, scary and technically stunning. A great show to beat the winter blues.
The opening is the 4th Feb 2011 7-10pm. It then runs till the 6th of March.
