Emotional Resonance

Martin Grover and Vicky Oldfield

Private view 10th March 2012 3pm to 7pm

 

An exhibition of paintings and prints by Martin Grover and Vicky Oldfield, both London artists being rarely seen  in the south west.  

Grover’s work is optimistic and life affirming .  Grover is master at capturing the pathos, humour, and beauty in everyday scenes and life experiences.  He trained at the Royal Academy Schools, has been shown internationally, including the Royal Academy, John Moore’s Exhibition Liverpool, V&A museum and the House of Commons. 

Having experimented with a variety of printmaking techniques, Vicky Oldfield has found her metier in collagraphy, a highly textural form of printing from a plate built up with layers of everyday materials.  Oldfield is becoming increasingly collectable having shown at the Royal Academy, Bankside, and The Mall Galleries, London.   

Martin Grover and Vicky Oldfield will be available at the private view on Saturday, 10 March, 3-7pm  Please contact The Marle Gallery for an invitation.
