The Hepworth Collection acquired the painting ‘Seagulls, Brian Sewell, Kicking etc‘, 1992, by Clyde Hopkins. Blackbird Rook opened its first physical exhibition in collaboration with The Good Ship Presents and the Yorkshire Art Space in Sheffield.
Jeff Dellow: Extended Fields marks not only a tribute to a lifetime of sustained enquiry, but also a beginning - a renewed recognition of a painter whose subtle mastery continues to shape the conversation around abstraction in Britain and beyond.
Two exhibitions are currently open with Blackbird Rook – one online and one in London – each offering a different way into the possibilities of contemporary painting.
