Exhibition
Songs for Dark Town Lovers - Part Two
08 Feb 2020 – 07 Mar 2020
Lotte Inch Gallery
York, United Kingdom
Jonny Hannah's double A-side exhibition across two venues, roots itself in all things music, and of course, love. With Sinatra’s “Songs for Swinging Lovers” playing in the background, this exhibition is an alternative Valentine for the creatively minded.
Join Jonny, who will be taking to the decks to celebrate the launch of his show, on Friday 7th February, 6-9pm, and get lost in a world filled with art, music and just plain lovely people....
Running for a month, until Saturday 7th March, with newly reinterpreted vinyl sleeves on display, alongside prints and hand-painted wooden cut-outs this will be a rich double-exhibition of work by a much-loved, highly-respected and totally unique artist. It will definitely not be your usual Valentine’s cliché!
The exhibition’s Part Two, opens at 10am on Saturday 8th February at Lotte Inch Gallery(14 Bootham, York). With coffee for those with sore heads, and art to further sooth the soul, the Gallery will be offering up a selection of new and recently produced work from Jonny’s abounding studio in Southampton.
