Thank you both for opening this window to your world in our first trip to Cornwall. It is moving your relationships with the artists. We go feeling we have chosen well ”
Taking over Tregony Gallery in 2015, gallery directors Judi and Brian Green embarked on a major re-branding and repositioning that culminated in an artist run gallery focusing on distinctive figurative painting with a unique contemporary focus for art in Cornwall.
Image above is a panoramic of the front gallery for the ‘Bright Land’ hang, 2019. The black fluff ball by the desk is Luna.
After 35 years working in the creative industries, Judi and Brian came with the ability to spot artists that have something different about how they see and interpret the world. Now, Tregony Gallery boasts an impressive roster of national and international artists and is the perfect place to enjoy a balance of original work by emerging and established British and contemporary artists. The gallery’s distinctive programme of exhibitions, have been rewarded by a growing number of collectors and extensive media coverage.
“Artist Judi Green and her partner Brian took over the well-established but quite traditionally oriented Tregony Gallery in Cornwall some four years ago and turned it into what good contemporary gallerists with a bit of venture and commitment in their bones could hope to achieve in the promotion of what I sometimes like to term ‘proper painting’. Maybe not so hard to do in St Ives with its huge, Tate St Ives primed audience but much harder work in a small holiday town. With younger painters like Mark Dunford, Kay Vinson and Sarah Spackman, trained in such place as the RCA, Slade, Camberwell and the Royal Drawing School, they have evolved a ‘house style’ of contemporary figuration that stretches from Uglow/Coldstream ‘structured’ observation to the more fluidly expressive and abstracted”.
Nicholas Usherwood, Galleries Magazine, 2019.
In addition to supporting established artists they nurture young and emerging artists within art schools and colleges awarding their annual Tregony Gallery Art Prize. Unfortunately Covid-19 has cancelled the 2020 prize.
