We are delighted to announce 'Manchester’s Urban Tapestry: A Painter’s Perspective' the latest solo show by Gallery artist Rob Pointon, his first exhibition in Manchester in 3 years.

Inspired by dynamic scenes from Manchester, Pointon depicts both alleyways and grand facades with the same attention to detail. Over the last couple of years Pointon has solidified his reputation as one of the most exciting and sought after artists in the UK. A master of cityscapes and interiors, Pointon's truthful style has once again captured the essence of the bustling city. 

Save the date for Rob Pointon's upcoming solo presentation, starting on the evening of 2nd of November and running until the 18th of November

The exhibition will feature 30 new original oil paintings by the artist.
