Myth and Magic - Anton ShapiroWednesday, September 1, 2010 - 09:00Tuesday, September 14, 2010 - 18:00

This exhibition follows a growth pattern of paints and drawings. It interprets myths from many diverse cultures such as Native American, Greek, Hindu, the Bible and literature.

The subject matter is considered as points of departure. They are not illustrations, but paintings whose meaning is to be found in its use of colour, from space, draughtsmanship and structure.

Included re-figure studies, study drawings for the works, seascapes, portraits and interpretations of Dante and Lewis Carrol.

The artist has works of paintings, drawings, sculpture and prints in many private collections and one work in the national museum in Olso. He has written books for young adults, illustrated a book for children and completed a sports book that will hopefully be on display by September.

Wednesday 1st September 6.30 - 8.30pm
Everyone is welcome to come to the grand opening night for drinks and nibbles and to meet Anton

Articles of Faith - Michael ScottWednesday, September 22, 2010 - 09:00Tuesday, September 28, 2010 - 18:00

Since graduating as a mature student five years ago I have been carefully constructing my practice as a professional artist. This is my first solo show.

Religion and art went hand in hand for centuries and it was only in the late 1800’s that their relationship changed. Altered by different views and a changing society, artists rarely debate religion in their work.

This show will discuss the relationships between twenty-first century religion, popular culture and contemporary art.
