‘Parallels’ explores the creative similarities between our artists from varied global locations and arts education backgrounds. From the UK to America, Ireland and the Middle East, with influences ranging from Giotto to Cezanne, Chardin and Seurat to Euan Uglow, Patrick George, Lennart Anderson and David Park, it is fascinating to see how art historical references and influences have crossed borders and timelines.
‘Parallels’ uses these lines of connection as a curatorial touchstone to bring together the diverse artistic practices and styles of our gallery artists. The exhibition shows work that is technically excellent, fresh and exciting; as well as meaningful and humanist. and includes new work for the exhibition from Mark Dunford, David Moore, Gregory Ward, David Baird, Simon Wright, Alex Cree, Ed Praybe and Daniel Preece. Exhibiting with Tregony Gallery for the first time is Israeli artist Osnat Oliva; and from the USA Neil Plotkin, Chris Liberti and Erin Raedeke.
