When: From 30th October to 2nd November, 11am - 6pm, Sunday 11am - 2pm

Dan Parry-Jones, Richard Twose, Tom Burke and Alan Wilkie put together an exhibition offering different perspectives about the relationship between audience, artist and the world around us.

We all search for the meaning in the world around us - we expect artists to help us find it. Perhaps what all artists do is look more closely at the surface of the world and re-present it back to us, held still enough for us to examine as closely as the artist does.

Here, four Bristol artists approach familiar themes, people and places, from four
different perspectives in what promises to be a remarkable show, spanning the scalse from realism top abstraction.

Allan Wilkie boasts skills in painting rarely seen these days in his outstanding figure-based narratives; equally, Richard Twose presents powerful portraits where we see the subjects’ life journey etched into the flesh. Dan Parry-Jones mixes both medium and process to create exquisite images, bridging the familiar with the unknown; while Thomas Burke strikes out with his orchestrated abstract compositions.

By bringing together these artists, Four Man Colour bears testament to the continuing vitality of painting in Britain today.
