Follies at Potterton

The launch of Ed Kluz' exhibition Follies from 6-8.30 pm on Thursday 10th June promises to bring a touch of the whimsical to Chelsea.

Drawing inspiration from Britain's architectural heritage, Kluz' work focuses on eccentric structures ranging from grottos and towers to pagodas and teahouses. Celebrating the secret, the forgotten and the bizarre, Kluz's prints, collages, paintings and mixed media works explore the combination of fantasy and reality which characterise these pavilions of delight.

Ed Kluz is an artist, printmaker, designer and illustrator who has recently completed commissions for Faber & Faber and Random House and is due to launch a fabric design for St Jude's later this year.

Follies is Kluz's second exhibition for Potterton Books and will be on display from 11th June to 3rd July.

Attention all Mark Hearld fans......!

Mark has a fabulous new exhibition of unique collages and limited edition prints at St Jude's Gallery in Norfolk. Hearld's distinctive work inspired by British flora and fauna was the subject of our Christmas  Exhibition.

Can't wait to sneak a peek at his new work..........
