“Rediscovering the North East” by the Darlington Association of Photographers launches on Thursday 15th September 2022, between 5pm and 7pm.
All welcome to join us!
The opening offers a great opportunity to meet some of the photographers and ask any questions you may have about the work on display over drinks and nibbles.
During and after the recent spell of lockdown due to Covid 19, members of the group rediscovered and appreciated what makes the North East of England so special. Members have chosen, through their individual interpretations of the area, to show what it means to them, by using both modern and traditional photographic media and techniques.
The exhibition showcases aspects of the North East from York in the south to Morpeth in the north, bounded by the Pennines on the west and the North Sea on the east. We hope you enjoy their selection and in turn, that you rediscover some of the best the North East has to offer.
We hope to see you at the opening and look forward to seeing you there.
Exhibition ends Friday 14th October 2022.
Graham Frank Wright’s exhibition “Freedom of Movement” launched with the Private View on Thursday 14th July 2022 with great success.
Born in 1950, Graham has led a fruitful life, beginning his art journey at Hartlepool College of Art in 1966 and exhibiting in galleries from Los Angeles to Middlesbrough.
Graham was met with an amazing opportunity to join the live music touring industry, which enabled him to travel extensively around the world, spending many years in Europe and the USA. He gained great knowledge and understanding of all genres – artistically, musically and in all walks of life generally. And this gave him the great ability of having – ‘Freedom of Movement’.
Retiring from the Rock Music industry in 2020, Graham returned to his art and started painting and drawing full time – this exhibition being an accumulation of the work he has produced in the past few years, which we hope you will enjoy.
Graham has explored many techniques, mediums and subjects throughout his art practice and there is ‘something for everyone’ in this display at The Heritage Gallery.
