Yigal Ozeri

This new series of works focus upon a single subject, Lizzy Jagger. Ozeri channels his painstaking practice into her sylph-like model, placing her within classically evocative settings. She is his muse.
The paintings are virtuoso displays of rigorously-controlled technique, intended to bring about an appearance of intense and compelling realism. Ozeri pays careful attention to the soft tonalities of the body, the subtleties of drapery, the play of both diffused and focussed light across form and landscape and the rendering of the variegated textures of surface.

Ron Hicks

Ron Hicks's, mostly female, subjects are subject to a Klimt-like assimilation with the decorative elements on the picture plane. There is an air of fey, late nineteenth century european Romanticism and also something of the swagger and poise of Sargent's society exquisites. They appear to be heroines (and some heroes): isolated, possibly alienated, individuals, self-absorbed and self-consciously posed in attitudes of indifference or disinterest, wary of, and, in turn, weighing-up, the viewer. The artist's models, drawn from his somewhat different, contemporary world, make surprisingly common-cause with those of the past.

Kyle Barnes

Kyle Barnes creates highly accomplished figurative portraits. In this new series we encounter his subjects through a lens that does not mask blemishes, but focuses upon them, holding them up to the light to be inspected and celebrated. Painterly marks and gestures build to display exposed skin in its entirely honest, imperfect form. 

Reflection

Quorum of Heart

Chris Rivers is a painter of sumptuously-coloured, turbulent skyscapes. The expressively- handled paint describes seething clouds, mists and vapours. Cyclones of elemental matter billow through an indeterminate void. On closer inspection however, tiny figures can be seen caught up in the maelstrom.

Ohio-born Ron Hicks is a mid-career, American painter with a long string of exhibitions to his name. His subject is the figure and the medium is oil. His mature style exploits to the full the aesthetic pleasures of his technique. He relishes the possibilities and outcomes offered by emphatic handling, graphic composition and textural manipulation.

British artist, Christopher Thompson, presents a new series of portraits. The subjects are all young and attractive, painted in Thompson’s trademark ‘chiaroscuro’ style. Anonymous, but distinctive, they are self-contained, avoiding, or unaware of, the viewers’ gaze.
