As the biggest selling exhibition by a northern artist to date, the Ben Kelly Exhibition at Clark Art -based in Hale Cheshire- has already seen 95 of this acclaimed artist’s paintings snapped up by art aficionados who have recognised the undoubted talent Ben Kelly possesses. It has been a great opportunity to purchase art by one of the most important northern artists of his generation while also making sound business investment sense as a tangible alternative to property, bonds and equities.
This major exhibition of Ben Kelly’s paintings is the culmination of 12 month’s work undertaken by the Macclesfield based artist and is his biggest one man show to date. ‘The World of Ben Kelly’ exhibition opened on the 9th October and runs to 31st October at the Clark Art Gallery in Hale, Cheshire. All 95 of his figurative, quirky paintings in the show sold out almost immediately. Ben Kelly’s last 4 major exhibitions also sold out weeks before the opening night, such is the demand for work by the latest phenomenon in the northern art circles.
The Ben Kelly Exhibition has been inundated with collectors wanting to go on the waiting list for one of Ben’s prestigious paintings while any potential purchaser is limited to one painting per person, such is the demand. Having trained at London’s renowned Central St Martins College, Ben’s star has risen rapidly, with notable achievements that have included him winning the £15,000 ‘Football in Art’ prize in 2006. His painting, “The Final Whistle” beat over 800 entrants to win, joining none other than L.S Lowry as a previous winner of this accolade.
Clark Art Ltd proudly present ‘The World of Ben Kelly’ exhibition running from the 9th October to the 31st October. Call 0161 929 5150 or email art@clark-art.co.uk for more information.
