FOLLOWING EXHIBITION

 

Michael Gough

(1932 - 2009)

 

'One Man's Landscape'

 

13th to 24th March 2012

 

Private View

Wednesday 14th March 5 to 8 pm.

 

The sensitive light-filled landscape paintings of Michael Gough contain that subtle English poetry born of a meditative approach to, and intimate appreciation of, nature. With their high horizon lines, empty yet delicately nuanced yellow foregrounds and sense of gently tilted topographic perspective they carry that vital tension between abstract concretion and the illusion of spatial depth.

Gough's output was modest but of high quality. His long and distinguished teaching career culminating as Vice Principal of Bournemouth College of Art restricted his artistic output; his practice as a painter was perhaps subordinate to his services to art education. His love of young people made him an open, inclusive, unprejudiced and sympathetic teacher but during vacations and after retirement he produced work in response to those locations - the New Forest near his Sway home, the Peak District and North Wales - that most inspired him.

Our art gallery is in a prime location at 22 Post Office Road BH1 1BA in the centre of Bournemouth; situated just off The Square between Richmond Hill and Old Christchurch Road. With a number of adjacent Cafes and Restaurants, this is an ideal place to while away some spare time while you reflect on the pictures you have seen in the gallery.

 

Bournemouth which is situated in Dorset on the south coast between Poole and Christchurch is also the home of the renowned Russell-Cotes Art Gallery and Museum, well worth visiting and not far from our gallery. The Arts University College Bournemouth is also nearby.

 

Other towns nearby include Wimborne, Ringwood, Blandford, Salisbury, Wareham, Swanage, Dorchester, Parkstone, Lyndhurst, Lymington and Southampton.

 

We specialise in original affordable contemporary paintings by a range of talented artists both from the local area and from further afield.

 

The gallery also houses a wide range of carefully sourced modern and traditional paintings primarily in oils and watercolours.

We are pleased to provide a home approval service as well as offering advice on design matters for those that require it. The gallery is owned, managed and curated by Paul Watts who is probably better known for establishing the highly regarded Estate Agency practice that still bears his name in Bournemouth.
