Robert Sample solo show 'The Removal' - 7th Jan, by Signal Gallery on Jan 4, 2010 13:41:49 GMT 1, 2010 kicks off at Signal with a great solo show by the young artist Robert Sample. I think you'll agree, he has a huge amount of talent. His work has something of Guy Denning's dark intensity and poise. Like Guy, Robert is influenced by masters of the past (Goya and Velรกsquez) for example, but his work also has a very contemporary feel. Robert has shown in a number of prestigious group shows in Leonard Street Gallery, in the Black Rat Press Gallery and most recently in the 'Represent ' group show curated by Matt Small in the Blackhall Studios in London, as well as in Barcelona. This will be Robert's first solo show in London.
If you'd like to come along to the Private View this Thursday the 7th January then please email me at info@signalgallery.com. If you'd like a preview of the show tomorrow then please let me know the same way.

Have to agree (I would) that Robert is very talented. Shame about the poor quality of the pics though - the works themselves are much much richer and more vibrant in the flesh.
Going to be priced well too.

However, fantastic in the flesh!

The works are varnished and very dark rich colours. The hardest to photograph - like Guys work. NEEDS to be seen in the flesh.

Robert Sample solo show 'The Removal' - 7th Jan, by Joseph Loughborough on Jan 8, 2010 17:01:50 GMT 1, I really enjoyed this show! A really busy night with everyone crammed into the gallery keeping chris and dale very busy! As is said these paintings must really be seen in the flesh! The clockwork,timed axe machine was a good touch to the evening as well! It destroyed the little cup and saucer that is present in many of this series. All the best for robert with this show!
