Portrush Artist Stages Major Exhibition at The Culloden Belfast This Week

Portrush-based artist Adrian Margey will be returning to the prestigious Culloden Estate & Spa with his latest Exhibition and Sale of work from this Thursday 19^th – Sunday 22nd October.

The artist is looking forward to showcasing his most recent depictions of North Down, Ards Peninsula, Mournes, North Coast, Belfast and Donegal with collectors and visitors to the much anticipated annual exhibition. Margey’s reputation is growing both at home and overseas, having held his first USA exhibition in Washington DC last year.

Although Adrian holds a PhD from Queen’s University Belfast, he is a self-taught artist. Adrian cites the Fauves, the Irish Impressionists and the indigenous artists of South America as his main influences. His signature ‘contemporary’ style combines a kaleidoscope palette with lazy brushstrokes and expressive knife work. His use of bold colour, strong shapes and expressive texture conjures up moods and often evokes an emotional response from the viewer.

Margey’s exciting new collection will showcase his extra-large canvases as well as smaller works in a variety of styles and colour palettes.   The show opens on the evening of Thursday 19^th October: 6-9pm and continues Friday 20th & Saturday 21st October: 11am – 8pm and Sunday 22nd October: 11am – 6pm. Admission is free – everyone welcome.
