An exhibition of work by CSM alumnus Dave Pearson will be on show at the Bermondsey Art Space from 20 April to 13 May 2012.
After Pearson’s death in 2008, the discovery of his extensive artwork in his Lancashire terraced house hit the headlines due to it’s estimated value of £1million. Pearson’s reputation has steadily grown in the art world and he has been likened to L.S. Lowry as an artist largely undiscovered in his own lifetime.
Critic and writer Edward Lucie-Smith said of Pearson: “It’s not often nowadays that a really major artist slips through the net.”
He described the upcoming exhibition – the first of its kind in the capital, Pearson’s birthplace – as “one of the greatest composed by any 20th century British artist.”
Exhibition: Friday 20 April – Sunday 13 May 2012
