SUMMARY:dot-art Gallery: dot-art: Metropolis
DESCRIPTION:Launching on 30th August\, the new exhibition at dot-art Galle
 ry showcases the work of two artists\, Susan Finch and John Charles\, who 
 focus on depicting urban landscapes\, specifically Merseyside. The metropo
 lis serves as a centre for work\, play and education\; it is a site of con
 tinuous growth and destruction. So which shapes\, colours and textures cre
 ate the fabric of its identity and vibrancy? Both from different parts of 
 Merseyside\, Finch and Charles explore Merseyside architecture in differen
 t yet complimentary ways. \nLiverpool-born Susan Finch first studied Fi
 ne Art at Manchester Polytechnic University. Since returning to her home c
 ity in the 1980’s\, her urban compositions have continued to combine the
  vibrancy and essence of the city in beautifully anecdotal ways.\nUsing an
  array of media to depict her much-loved Merseyside\, Susan marries broken
  text with expressive line\; hand-writing subtle quips among her magical\,
  multi-layered work. Finch is well known for her otherworldly depictions o
 f Sefton Park Palm House and has exhibited her expressionist cityscapes in
  galleries and museums nationally.\nJohn Charles grew up in Kirkby\, Live
 rpool and first applied brush to canvas at the age of 27. Using his prefer
 red medium\, acrylic\, John is now an award-winning artist\, his individua
 l style attracting commissions from a number of national and international
  personalities.\nIn his art\, John employs the unusual technique of edging
  his subjects in bold\, vibrant line\, taking distinctive Liverpool landsc
 apes and highlighting their unique and often overlooked character. John ex
 plores the impact of modernization in his work\, using delicate palette kn
 ife strokes to emphasize fragile balance of urban infrastructure.\nThe exh
 ibition continues until 12th October.\nThe dot-art Gallery can be found a
 t 14 Queen Avenue\, Castle Street\, Liverpool\, L2 4TX.\nOpening times: Mo
 nday – Saturday\, 10am-6pm
