Just confirmed and finalised, we'll be mounting a fascinating double solo exhibition of the work of two artists, both of whom utilise narrative forms and saturated colour, but with very different effect. Van De Poll's 'Feast of Beasts' is a personal bestiary in various media that includes all kinds of fabulous and mythical creatures, and Portlocks "Oh darling, don't be ridiculous of course it's African" is a collection of personal stories in acrylic from her early life as a colonial child in Zimbabwe and South Africa.
More detail soon...

Fishbone Gallery
- Who, What, Where, are Fishbone Gallery ?
- Longford, Coventry, United Kingdom
- The Fishbone Gallery is something of a rarity. A gallery committed to promoting the diversity of the visual arts of the West Midlands, that supports new artists and encourages them to show work that otherwise might not receive the attention it deserves. We are not primarily a profit making enterprise, and therefore we can afford to show experimental work that would never gain proper exposure through commercial channels. We also host a wide range of community projects and events, clubs and classes, run by specialist practitioners with thorough knowledge of their particular disciplines. We welcome all people of all ages and all cultural backgrounds, to come along and be part of what we do. Our mission is to make art and art practise an integral part of the lives of the people of Longford, and to encourage a broader audience for the visual arts in Coventry and the West Midlands. The gallery is run by Judy Kay and Jeff Hatt
