New George Underwood Exhibition Opens

I’d like to blow on your horn…

David’s old mucker, George Underwood, will be exhibiting some brand new works at The Portal Gallery in London from 11th April until 30th April.

I’m sure most reading this are more than familiar with George’s work for DB through the years. But, just in case you’ve forgotten what it is about Mr Underwood’s recent works that pleases David’s eye so…read on:

“George has, over the years, refined his work to the point where I would put him among the top figurative painters coming out of the UK right now. There?s a sublime isolation surrounding his subjects that really touches the viewer, the figures being both heroic and vulnerable simultaneously. There?s a timeless element in the choice of subject matter that overlaps with the mythical world of Odd Nerdrum, say. Now that a huge shift to painting is taking place, I would expect to see George?s name pushed further and further to the front” – David Bowie
