Exhibition: Alan Halliday - 'Inspired by Charleston'

This coming week at Potterton Books London we are are looking forward to the opening of our exhibition of original paintings by Alan Halliday, which were inspired by Charleston and the Bloomsbury artists.

Earlier this year, Alan was commissioned by Potterton Books to go to Charleston to draw and paint interiors of the house, the Sussex country residence of the Bloomsbury set.  The sixteen paintings he has produced for the exhibition combine the beautiful rich colours of the hand-painted furniture, wallpaper, rugs and decorative objects of Charleston that are so evocative of the Bloomsbury artists, but still maintain his own unique and wonderful style.

The exhibition will run from 26th September - 15th October 2014.

Our private view takes place this Thursday 25th September from 6-8pm in our London shop at 93 Lower Sloane Street, SW1W 8DA.

Please do RSVP to Deborah Mack - shop@pottertonbookslondon.co.uk if you would like to attend the opening.

The paintings will be available to view on our website: www.pottertonbookslondon.co.uk
