Patrick Cullen NEAC @ HLSI
Apr 21 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

We are delighted to welcome Patrick Cullen, who has just won a prize at this year’s prestigious Lynn Painter-Stainers Competition, back to Highgate Gallery. This wide ranging exhibition is inspired by his travels in India, Italy and Transylvania, and also includes portraits, flower studies and paintings of the female nude.

Patrick uses oils and pastels to create an intense and personal response to his subject matter.  His work derives from close observation of and interaction with nature, which gives it freshness and vitality.  Whether he is concerned with a Tuscan view or an Indian street market scene, the colour, heat and atmosphere are all vividly conveyed.  As artist Ken Howard, R.A. has put it, Patrick’s work “speaks directly to us .…  He has the impressionist’s ability to fix the mood of a moment,… also his work has that quality which is essential to all great art, the balance between form and content.”

Patrick trained at St Martin’s and Camberwell art schools in the 1970s and is the recipient of many prizes in addition to the recent Lynn Painter-Stainers award, including the Watercolour Prize at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and prizes from the Pastel Society, the Royal Watercolour Society and the New English Art Club, of which he is a member.  His paintings are in many collections including the Royal Academy and Sheffield City Art Gallery.

When not travelling, Patrick lives in Stroud Green, and is also known for his paintings of London allotment views.

Highgate councillors’ surgery @ Jacksons Lane
Apr 25 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm

Highgate councillors hold a surgery at Jacksons Lane on the 1st and 3rd Saturday mornings, and at the HLSI (Highgate Literary and Scientific Society, South Grove, Pond Square) on the 2nd and 4th Saturday mornings. There is no surgery on 5th Saturdays.

Councillors’ surgeries provide the opportunity for a constituent to meet one of his/her councillors face-to-face. The purpose is usually to discuss and hopefully to help resolve a local or personal issue in which Haringey council has or could have a role. Meeting at a surgery can be particularly useful when there are numerous documents relevant to the issue. Surgeries are normally held in the cafe or foyer area of Jacksons Lane theatre, but a private space is available if required. No booking is needed.

West End Musicals Singing Workshop @ Lauderdale House
Apr 26 @ 10:30 am – 2:30 pm

Featuring songs from Miss Saigon & Matilda

This is a fantastic opportunity to participate in an ‘open to all levels’ singing workshop of songs from these famous West End musicals.

Whether you are a total beginner or an experienced singer you’ll enjoy singing fabulous songs from the West End and training your voice at the same time. Take a look at a short video of workshop run by Idit.

In the first session of the workshop we’ll teach you basic breathing and vocal techniques and show you some performing skills which you’ll be using later in the singing session.

You’ll be coached individually as well as working with the group. Kieran and Idit will prepare you for a short performance at the end of the workshop. Once you book your place on the workshop we’ll email you the song sheets with web links so you can practise in advance.

Great fun, not to be missed! Find out more and book via our Workshops page.

Patrick Cullen NEAC @ HLSI
Apr 26 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

We are delighted to welcome Patrick Cullen, who has just won a prize at this year’s prestigious Lynn Painter-Stainers Competition, back to Highgate Gallery. This wide ranging exhibition is inspired by his travels in India, Italy and Transylvania, and also includes portraits, flower studies and paintings of the female nude.

Patrick uses oils and pastels to create an intense and personal response to his subject matter.  His work derives from close observation of and interaction with nature, which gives it freshness and vitality.  Whether he is concerned with a Tuscan view or an Indian street market scene, the colour, heat and atmosphere are all vividly conveyed.  As artist Ken Howard, R.A. has put it, Patrick’s work “speaks directly to us .…  He has the impressionist’s ability to fix the mood of a moment,… also his work has that quality which is essential to all great art, the balance between form and content.”

Patrick trained at St Martin’s and Camberwell art schools in the 1970s and is the recipient of many prizes in addition to the recent Lynn Painter-Stainers award, including the Watercolour Prize at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and prizes from the Pastel Society, the Royal Watercolour Society and the New English Art Club, of which he is a member.  His paintings are in many collections including the Royal Academy and Sheffield City Art Gallery.

When not travelling, Patrick lives in Stroud Green, and is also known for his paintings of London allotment views.
