News : Duncan Macgregor Appearing Live In March
Internationally-acclaimed artist, Duncan Macgregor, will be making a personal appearance at the Breeze Gallery, Frasers, Glasgow on Sunday 7th March 2pm until 4pm at a Champagne reception to launch his new collection. The gallery will be showcasing a series of collectable Limited Editions alongside a specially selected range of previously unseen Original Paintings.
Duncan grew up in the Midlands despite being so far inland, he managed to develop a passion for the sea, and spent a significant eighteen months sailing across the Atlantic and then around the coast of Britain. Taking his inspiration from the surrounding landscape and of course the sea, Duncan is particularly fascinated by the effects of natural light on colour. His distinctive palette conveys the cool yet vibrant shades of sea and sky as they appear to his artist’s eye. Verging on the abstract, his work is characterised by the dense application of richly textured acrylics, which create a sense of spontaneity and unstoppable energy.
Duncan’s latest collection includes a fascinating new range of artwork printed directly onto glass. Whilst his compositions have always had great drama, the almost metallic sheen and shimmering surface of the glass gives an unprecedented impact to these ultra-stylish editions ranging from evocative coastal landscapes to sailing through the wind.
To ensure that his artwork remains diverse and innovative Duncan has focused on subjects beyond seascapes and sailing. The eye-catching beach huts, near Duncan’s Norfolk home, have always attracted him and in these vibrant portrayals he has used bold colours to set them apart from previous works.
Manager, Robert, commented: “Duncan’s work has been a consistent highlight in the gallery since we opened and this new collection could not have come at a better time. We are extremely proud that he has he is coming to the gallery, and are delighted that our customers will have the opportunity to meet him and view his new work, particularly the Original Paintings.”
