A GRIMSBY art gallery will once again be showcasing its work in the capital at the London Art Fair 2015 next month.
Abbey Walk Gallery is now in its seventh year of providing great art for the public of North East Lincolnshire and surrounding area; and will be taking the work of four Lincolnshire-based artists to be showcased as part of the exhibition at the annual show.
Artists Stephen Newton, Linda Ingham and Paul Galyer and sculptor Michael Thacker will once again have their work shown to the thousands who visit the London event each year.
"We are in our third year of exhibiting at the fair", said Gillian Hadwin, one of the directors of Abbey Walk Gallery.
"It's always a great experience for us and the artists involved, and we are really pleased to have the opportunity to put Grimsby on the map".
Not that a history of great art in Grimsby and the surrounding areas is anything new; the Grimsby School of Art, founded more than 150 years ago, has always bred accomplished artists from the area.
Accordingly Newton, pictured below, Ingham and Galyer all have works in public and private collections all over the world.
Linda Ingham, pictured right, said: "This year has been really good for me. There has not been a month when I have had work off the walls of a museum."
The trio have also collaborated on an Art Council-funded project entitled EASTERLIES with Abbey Walk Gallery, which brought a selection of paintings, drawings and artworks from the East Contemporary Art Collection, Ipswich.
The gallery has a limited number of complimentary tickets available for the London Art Fair, which runs from January 21 to 25, in Islington.
"It's an opportunity not to be missed.
"We look forward to welcoming our friends from Grimsby and country-wide alike", said Gillian. If you can't make it to London, why not visit the gallery's first 2015 show, the Forest of Possibility, which runs from Wednesday, January 7 to Saturday, January 14?
