Giles Barwick: Evoke

Date: Monday, Sep 11 2017 - Wednesday, Jan 31 2018
Venue: The Square Club
Artists
Giles Barwick

Solo show for this Bristol-based fine artist who employs innovative techniques and shrewd use of colours.

Following a short course at St Ives School of Art, Giles moved on to the University of the West of England (UWE) to study Fine Art, where he was awarded the Innes Wilken Art in Architecture prize.

Giles’ current 2D abstracts feature varied techniques and a more illustrative style. The rough brush strokes, dribbles and smears are achieved with the use of acrylics, pens and spray cans.

Independent journalism
is needed now More than ever
Keep our city's journalism independent.

“Giles’ art remains a means of self-expression: painting and drawing having always been an
integral part of his life, and yet his more angst-ridden canvases are bright and lively in nature.”

The Square Club is open Mon-Sat 7am-1am/Sun 8am-11pm. For more info, visit www.gilesbarwick.com
