TONY BEVAN

Ben Brown Fine Arts Hong Kong is delighted to present an exhibition of new paintings by Tony Bevan, an artist who has been at the forefront of British visual arts for almost thirty years and is widely considered to be one of Britain’s leading figurative painters. Bevan’s first foray onto the Asian art scene was in 2008, when he participated in the Building Bridges exhibition at the Today Art Museum in Beijing, showcasing works inspired by a recent trip to China. The current exhibition is Bevan’s first solo show in Hong Kong, and highlights the artist’s intense thematic investigations over the past three decades with his consistent, yet progressive focus on the human head, architectural interiors and most recently, landscapes. This exhibition is particularly exciting, as it dovetails with a retrospective of five Self-Portraits by Tony Bevan which will open at The National Portrait Gallery, London in March 2011.
