British Artist John
Bratby Exhibition feature picture of Paul McCartney
2
portraits of Paul McCartney, will go on display for the 1st time together as
part of a major new exhibition of work by British Artist John Bratby, at
Jerwood Gallery, Hastings, UK, over 30 January 2016 and 17 April 2016.
The UK public will have a rare opportunity to shape the style and content of
a major gallery exhibition. The gallery has been overwhelmed with
submissions of privately owned Bratby's, along with personal recollections,
letters and photos and some wonderful works. There was intensity to Bratby's
output, as his widow Patti recalls:- "From one seed out of a packet of
the Van Gogh variety, John did 55 pictures in 18 days." Patti
herself will be involved in the exhibition, loaning Bratby's work and
keepsakes from his studio:- "I'm so excited, I can't stop thinking
about it!"
