Welcome to the Art of Keith Barrell NDD. ATC.
(London)
New York Exhibition
Montserrat Gallery
The above successful exhibition has now finished.
I would like to thank the Montserrat Gallery and the many visitors
to the show for their interest in my work and all the positive comments
that were made during the Champagne Reception evening.
This was our first time to NYC and the people of New
York did themselves proud. We met some fantastic people, who I'm
sure we will keep in touch with and some strange characters in our
tour of the City - but we loved every minute of it.

All About It!
I
am in the process of developing a new range of work that seeks to
explore new concepts and processes of working. These culminate from
my recent move from painting in Watercolour to working with Acrylics,
based on the male form.
The fluid use of this water based medium in conjunction with heavily
sculptured textural surfaces on 3-dimensional forms, has resulted
in a new suite of work, entitled 'Warriors'.
The image (above) is one of a current suite of low relief sculptures
entitled 'Warriors', which I
am building whilst continuing with other processes that include
drawing and painting.
Artist's Statement - "For the past few years
I have continued to draw from the male figure and have produced watercolours,
life-size ceramic sculptures and paperworks, by developing images
that are derived from the Male Torso. I feel that my current work
relates both to my initial training as a figurative sculptor and with
my aesthetic understanding achieved from my professional roles as
teacher, lecturer, art advisor and inspector of art education.
I have remained influenced by Oriental Decorative
Arts, Ceramics and Metalware in particular, by creating sculptures
that are based on architectural or abstracted natural forms. these
are designed specifically for gardens. I have participated in successful
group exhibitions over many years and have sold works to Local Authorities
and private collectors."
