SUMMARY:Corke Gallery: Corke Gallery: Martin Greenland\, I Am Not Making Th
 is Up
DESCRIPTION:Martin Greenland\nI AM/NOT MAKING THIS UP\nPRIVATE VIEW\n6pm 
 – 8pm\, Thursday 29 September 2016\n\nExhibition Dates\nPart 1: Fri 30 S
 ept – Thu 20 Oct 2016\nPart 2: Wed 31 Oct – Fri 12 Nov 2016\nMartin Gr
 eenland won the John Moores Painting Prize in 2006 with his painting ‘Be
 fore Vermeer's Clouds’ and for most of the past thirty years those who k
 now his work will have seen a predominance for landscape. Within this work
 \, elements\, themes and motifs have come and gone and recent paintings ha
 ve become purer as landscapes\, this being the biggest joy for him\; to pu
 rely invent landscape\, as this is what these works are\; complete\, impro
 vised inventions\, even if these pictured places are sometimes rooted in r
 eal places. He uses all his skills as a painter and what he knows and can 
 remember so the viewer is absolutely convinced of the landscape's reality.
 \n\nIn recent times he has often made paintings in a way which can be desc
 ribed as the mirror opposite of the landscapes\; that is\, completely and 
 directly scrutinised still lifes. He has long been convinced that new life
  can be brought to this\, for many\, stale genre. Martin is tired of the l
 aziness\, the cliché\, the lack of meaning which so much still life has s
 o his new work brings something a little different\; irony\, a sense of hu
 mour\, a dedication to tradition but also a shaking up of that tradition a
 nd most important\, inscrutable painterly accuracy.\n\nI am delighted to i
 nvite you to the Private View for the exhibition on Thursday 29 September 
 2016. Martin will be attending so it’s a great opportunity to meet with 
 him and discuss his work. This exhibition features both large and small wo
 rks\, recently painted in oils.\n\nIf you are able to attend please can yo
 u RSVP either by email to curator@corke.net or by calling or texting 07773
  287827 - thank you in advance and please feel free to bring along friends
 \, family or colleagues.
