Martin Greenland - 'New Fiction'

Liverpool Independents Biennial 2010

Saturday 18th September to Friday 12th November 2010

The Cornerstone Gallery is proud to present an Exhibition of new works by Martin Greenland.

‘New Fiction’ is a delicate balance between the believable, based upon what is seen, and the unbelievable, the unseen. This balance is negotiated through an appreciation of physical beauty, the technical craft of paint and the concept.

Greenland’s works are ‘inspired’ by landscape translated from visual stimuli gained whilst walking. He does not paint the places or landscapes he encounters, but paints about them whilst retaining visual references and elements rooted in the real world. The process of painting infused by such visual imagery, memory and imagination evolves into a visual and conceptual impression unique to Greenland.

Since winning the highly acclaimed National John Moores Painting Prize in 2006, Greenland has continued to exhibit extensively throughout the UK and is now enjoying new successes internationally.

The Cornerstone is honoured to showcase Martin Greenland’s return to Liverpool’s programme of Exhibitions.

The Cornerstone Gallery is set at the grand entrance of Liverpool Hope's Cornerstone Campus, 10 minutes from the city centre.

'The Cornerstone is an increasingly significant (and desirable) gallery space' - Joe Riley, Liverpool Echo, 14th February 2006.
