Jeffrey Dennis: Ringbinder

25 Jul-17 Oct 2015

Northern Gallery For Contemporary Art
Sunderland SR6 0GL

Overview

The Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art is pleased to present ‘Ringbinder’, a solo exhibition by Jeffrey Dennis, which will consist of a new series of paintings and sculpture housed in NGCA’s reconfigured main gallery space. Aside from staging a concentrated progression of the artist’s work made between 2011 and 2015, the exhibition will also attempt to reflect on Dennis’ development since his initial profile in Britain was formed during the early 1980s. This was a period that saw a significant international resurgence in painting in parallel with the ‘New Image Painting’ in North America and the ‘Jungen Wilden’ (Young Wild Ones) in Germany, both of which were considered counter-movements to Conceptual Art.
