Robert Lenkiewicz Exhibition Coming Soon to Smart Gallery

Shelley — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 12:41:48 +0000

Smart Gallery is honoured to present this extraordinary exhibition of paintings by Robert Lenkiewicz (1941 – 2002), one of Britain’s most colourful, fascinating and talented artists. As long ago as 1973, the cover of ‘The Daily Telegraph Magazine’ summed up his career with ‘The artist as entertainer…philosopher…and social conscience.’ Always the scourge of the art establishment, Lenkiewicz lived a life with panache entirely on his own terms, creating a rich and powerful body of work on an epic scale, executed with a skill and ambition unrivalled by contemporary painters. This magnificent collection of paintings includes a handful of rare earlier pieces but draws largely on Lenkiewicz’s 1994 project ‘The Painter with Women’ – some of which have not been exhibited or previously offered for sale.

To register your interest to receive an invitation, please call the gallery on 01924 455445 or email batley@smartgallery.co.uk.

Peter Brook Weekend Event on 9th and 10th of April

Shelley — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 15:11:55 +0000

Here at Smart Gallery, we are having a special two-day event to commemorate Peter Brook’s life (1927-2009) and works.

On the 9th and 10th of April, join us for bubbly and nibbles, and get an exclusive look into some rare limited edition prints and originals by Peter Brook.

Peter was born in nearby Holmfirth, where he first became aware of his beautiful surroundings. After being in the RAF for two years, Peter returned to his routes and became an art teacher at Sowerby Bridge Grammar School where he began to build on his now great reputation as an artist.

Peter’s paintings continue to show his twinkling humour as well as the vast and beautiful landscapes of his beloved Yorkshire. They show Peter and his faithful dog, admiring the views and exploring the lands, giving us the chance to see the amazing scenery he saw over his lifetime.

Don’t hesitate to call the gallery on 01924 455445 if you have any questions on what will be exhibited at the event. We hope to see you there!

An Afternoon With Philip Gray

Shelley — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:13:04 +0000

What a wonderful event it was on Saturday 5th December – we had a great turn out for Philip, which he really appreciated as he’d flown in that morning from Cork, Ireland! Everyone had fun adding their own mark to the original pastel he created live in the gallery, which we then raffled in aid of Macmillan Cancer. We raised £300.00 during the three-hour event and the winner of the raffle was Mr Philip Beck.
