About:

Repre art collective is a group of artists who have come together to exhibit, celebrate and promote contemporary representational art. They share a common vision to capture and depict reality and express it through diverse and eloquent forms of painting. This is their first collaborative exhibition together and the installation promises to be a vibrant display of contemporary portrait and landscape painting.

The choice to hold their first exhibition together in St Martin-in-the-Fields and at the heart of the establishment in Trafalgar Square conveys their desire to raise the profile of contemporary figurative art and what it can truly articulate. It is fitting that a venue which has shown work by established artists such as Chris Gollon and Mike Chapman can also accommodate the work of emerging talent.

A prize draw will take place on the night of the private view as Julie Bennett, Nathaniel Fowles and Patrick Simkins will be donating limited edition prints of their work to raise funds for St. Martin-in-the-Fields BBC Radio 4 Christmas Appeal.

Exhibiting artists:

Julie Bennett, a talented artist who reappropriates mass-mediated images into gestural paintings.

Nathaniel Fowles, an artist who paints evocative scenes of London and has his work in many private collections.

Jemma Grundon, whose work concerns the landscape and the evocative nature of the world we live in.

Noel Hefele, an artist based in Brooklyn, New York who is interested in the ever expanding notions of landscape painting.

Amelia Humber, whose paintings relay the atmosphere and emotion of landscape.

Rebecca Molloy, the founder of Repre Art Collective and a burgeoning figurative artist and portrait painter.

Louise Morgan, a landscape painter that produces exquisite little watercolours.

Andrew Newton, an experimental hyper-realist who creates powerful compelling portraits reflecting scenes of real life.

Patrick Simkins, a London-based artist exhibiting work throughout UK and is an official London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Storyteller.
