Pageant Paddlers
(23.5″ x 18″ / 46cm x 60cm)

I am delighted to report that the gallery is holding an exhibition celebrating Venice and thus renewing their long-standing partnership with Venice in Peril and Kirker Holidays.

The works, depicting many aspects of this fascinating city, are by 19^th and 20^th century artists combined with contemporary works. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Venice in Peril Fund and Kirker Holidays have donated a 5 star weekend for two in Venice to the lucky purchaser of one of the show’s works.

This exhibition sits well with my December book review of Map: Exploring the World since through paintings, prints and sculptures it looks at maps and what they can depict in a quirky way. Numbered among the artists whose work is on display are Yanko Tihov, Ewan David Eason, Gemma Harwood, Emma Levine, Rachel Johnston and Hedy Parry Davies.
