The exhibition at the See Gallery in Rossendale is now up and running, continuing until 3rd January 2010.

There are paintings of Manchester, Pennine Lancashire, Burnley football club, over-seas, Family and some new music related ink drawings. It’s a pretty comprehensive exhibition, some 77 pieces in total, and most of the work is for sale. ( A couple of treasured family paintings are on loan from our house!)

Several of the pieces included in the show can be seen here: http://www.liamspencer.co.uk/new-exhibition/

If you haven’t visited the exhibition yet, why not join us on Saturday 5th December for art, mince pies, mulled wine and coffee. Get an early start on that Christmas spirit! The gallery will be open from 10am until 4 pm, and I’ll be around if anyones wants to chat about art, football, music and the meaning of life.

To coincide with the exhibition, a box set/catalogue has been produced as a signed limited edition of 100. It contains a 28 page booklet, with texts, 13 colour reproductions and black and white illustrations. Also included is a set of 18 cards, 12×12 cms, 6 reproductions of paintings and 12 reproductions of ink drawings of album covers and musicians. There’s even a cd containing 42 illustrations of the album cover drawings which make up one of the large composite pieces in the exhibition. It costs £20, and is available from the See gallery.

Hope this will be of interest. You might remember that last year I was involved in organising an exhibition of the legendary rock cartoonist Ray Lowry’s work at the See Gallery in Crawshawbooth, Rossendale.

This Friday sees the opening of a new exhibition which marks the first anniversary of Ray’s death. Hope to see some of you there. Details below.

The second Buy Art Fair is taking place at Urbis in Manchester from 24-27th September. Details can be found at www.buyartfair.co.uk

I will be represented at the fair by Wendy J. Levy Contemporary Art, and will be showing several paintings and ink drawings, including some studies for the UEFA cup final 2008 artwork. I’ll also be “in conversation” with Kate Jesson from Manchester Art Gallery on Saturday 26th at 2pm. This event has been organised for the Manchester Art Gallery Friends, but is open to general visitors to the fair (booking may be required). Hope to see some of you there.

Prospect Studios, which I share with sculptor Jill Randall and printmaker Alan Birch, will be open to the public on:

Saturday and Sunday 6th – 7th June 2009, from 10am to 4am.

It’s a great chance to meet the artists in their studios, and there will be work for sale.

It’s part of “Reveal”, a weekend of open studios and exhibtions in the Rossendale Valley.
