Frequency Drift: 6th JUL – 7th AUG
Artist: April Virgoe
Aprils paintings are slowly built up through numerous layers
of oil paint which result in shifting tonal patterns and a
fluctuating quality of light - a process of tuning out rather than in.
The images consist of two dialogistic elements – the often barely perceptible
architectural forms which can be read as real or imagined spaces, monumental or
diminutive and the grid which denies an absolute fixed reference point or image.
Exhibitions are free entry & all ages are welcome unless otherwise stated.
Open Tues - Sat 9am - 5pm
Future Exhibitions Coming Soon
Out of the Dark
13th SEPT - 26th SEPT
Abbey Walk Gallery presents the first major Art Retrospective to be held in Grimsby.
Original works of art that have been housed in private collections or hidden from view in storerooms in galleries – a truly eclectic selection of work from renowned artists that include: Matisse, Banksy, Andy Warhol, Ronnie Wood, the actor Anthony Quinn, Lowry and many more.
Eternal Landscape
28th SEPT - 30th OCT
The exhibition of Roy Perry showcases some of the artists most admired work in a collection that spans his entire career. Roy’s approach to his painting could be described as typically analytical, reducing his subjects to their essential form. However he remains conscious of the intangible mystery in all matter, and his subjects, no matter how abstract, are never made to look mechanical or geometric.
Great Grimsby – Dockland and Sea
1st NOV - 6th DEC
As a local man born and bred Dale Mackie has always had a strong affinity towards the Towns fishing heritage. In his paintings he uses historic images of the old Grimsby Fish Docks and its trawlers which he sources from old family documents and old newspaper images. This is his second Exhibition at Abbey Walk Gallery which has been borne out of a demand that his new series of his iconic drawings and paintings be seen.
