Recent years have seen the rise of realism in painting through a range of personalised and sometimes edgy respresentations of the everyday world. Although currently the domain of photography, this show takes a small number of painters who have created new ways of handling this theme.
Artists featured in the exhibition include John Crossley, Stephen Loughman, Mark O’Kelly, Colin Martin, Aidan McDermott, Nathalie du Pasquier, Gavin O’Curry, David Quinn, Katy Simpson, Blaise Smith.
