Denis
Bowen Exhibition
of His Last Paintings at the Harlequin Gallery |
||
|
4th and
25th June 2006 |

He had done the paintings on paper and canvas over a few months
at the end of 2004 in his flat in London. Often he would work late in the
night when he had been unable to sleep, and was very excited about the
outcome. All explore his reoccurring themes of space, space travel, molten
surfaces and fire – most appropriate as the European spacecraft, Venus
Express, explores the atmosphere and surface of Venus, the “Hothouse Planet”
in the weeks leading up to this exhibition. Plans to publish a book to accompany the work were discussed but
his long stay in hospital during 2005 made that impossible. However, as Denis
would have wanted ……………… the show goes on and I hope you feel like Denis that
this work is a fitting tribute. Below are 6 of the works included in the exhibition: - |
