These three artists, friends since art college, share a common interest in figurative and landscape themes, their work reflecting a love of both traditional painting and its modern counterpart.
The inspiration for Ken Gallagher’s work is his family in Ireland and the moody Donegal landscape. Figures working the land or sitting at a table are familiar subjects in his drawings and heavily worked etchings. His London work is motivated by the landscape and aspects of day to day life in the city.
John Mortimer’s work is mainly concerned with the urban and rural landscape and the human figure. All his works begin with drawing directly from the subject and later he develops his ideas in his studio where the challenge is to make pictorial sense from what is essentially visual chaos. In recent years, John has worked on a series of self-portrait images, painting directly from life, a subject he first approached in his late fifties.
Anthony Taylor is strongly influenced by expressionist painting, but he has always sought an individual approach, believing that experience and observation are the bedrocks of meaningful work. He is a keen lover of the outdoors, in particular the high moorland tracts and rugged landscapes found in the North West of England. His recent landscape work, featuring old and decrepit dry-stone walls, makes a striking contrast to the paintings of the dry-stone walls – the paret seca – of Minorca, which he recorded whilst there on holiday.
About the artists: Ken Gallagher studied at Horsey College of Art and the Royal Academy Schools, London. He lives in East London, dividing his time between Ireland and England. John Mortimer studied at Accrington College, Liverpool Polytechnic Faculty of Art and Design and the Royal Academy Schools. He is based in East London. Anthony Taylor is a northern based artist who trained at Accrington College and Liverpool College of Art. He has exhibited widely throughout the North West of England having held solo shows in Liverpool, Bury, Manchester, Leeds and many other venues. His work is in both private and public collections.

Exhibition continues until 7 April.

Jacquelyn Hynes is a highly regarded flautist and composer, rooted in Irish and English traditional music who has played alongside and supported many of Irelands leading artists including Martin Hayes, Michael McGoldrick, Mary Coughlan and Lunasa. Her debut CD “Silver and Wood” received 4 star reviews from the Telegraph and RnR magazine, and was Album of the Week on BBC Radio nan Gaídheal.
“Haunting and wonderful” Telegraph (Folk Albums of the Year)
“Brings Hynes’ innate sense of innovation to the table –
ethereal and other-worldly yet also attractively contemporary” Irish World
A musician, teacher and promoter, it would be no exaggeration to say that Karen Ryan lives and breathes traditional Irish music. Born in London to Galway and Mayo parents, it was a strong Connemara tradition of melodeon players and traditional singers on her mother’s side that initially fired her love of the music.
Karen started playing music at the age of nine, taught by the North Leitrim musician Tommy Maguire at the London Irish Centre, where she herself now teaches. It was here that she met lifelong friends and fellow fiddle players, Elaine Conwell and Teresa Connolly (Ní Heanue), with whom she won the under 12 Trio competition at the All-Ireland Fleadh in 1985.
In 2013 Karen was awarded ‘Female Musician of the Year’ by Chicago Irish American News and ‘Instrumental Album of the Year’ by Live Ireland. In 2014 she was award a ‘Bliain na Cruinne’ Award by Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann for teaching and other services to Irish culture overseas.
“That she is an exquisite fiddler is beyond question. Almost by definition, the whole character of the album is, of course, London Irish – a style of which Karen is undoubtedly today one of the very finest exponents”. The Irish Post
Renowned for his melodic and warmly lyrical trumpet playing, Chris Batchelor has been composing music for almost as long as he’s been performing. Winner of the prestigious Paul Hamlyn Foundation Award for Composers and a BBC Jazz Award, this new ensemble sees Batchelor further honing and distilling the approach he established in his writing for the influential groups Loose Tubes and Big Air.
Batchelor’s distinctive compositions for Zoetic are the outcome of his long lasting immersion in a wide range of music in London’s varied scene, from East African guitar band grooves to echoes of wistful European folk themes and sinuous lines reminiscent of Arabic music.
Zoetic is an exceptional combination of musicians who have played together for years in many other settings. Guitarist John Parricelli and bassist Steve Watts were fellow members of Loose Tubes, for which Batchelor was a key composer and soloist. The addition of violist Margrit Hasler and percussionist Paul Clarvis results in a unique and intriguing collective sound, rich in textural possibilities.

Fauré, V Williams and Hussey – HCS Concert 21 May 2022
HCS’s Spring concert presents an enduring French choral favourite together with English song settings of celebrated poems by the seventeenth century Anglican priest George Herbert – including a new commission by HCS, and a piece in anticipation of the upcoming 150th anniversary of Vaughan Williams’ birth.
Gabriel Fauré’s famous Requiem in D minor, opus 48, was composed mainly between 1887 and 1890 as a setting of the shortened Catholic Mass for the Dead. The work, which focuses on eternal rest and consolation, is in seven movements and scored for soprano and baritone soloists, mixed choir, orchestra and organ. The Requiem was first performed in 1888 at La Madeleine in Paris, with the composer himself conducting. Fauré later revised and expanded the work, reworking it for full orchestra. In 1924 the Requiem was performed at Fauré’s own funeral in its full orchestral version. HCS will perform the version with organ accompaniment.
The English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams wrote his Five Mystical Songs between 1906 and 1911. The piece sets spiritually-themed poems by George Herbert and was first performed in 1911 at the Three Choirs Festival in Worcester, with the composer himself conducting. The Five Mystical Songs will be performed by HCS in the version for baritone soloist with choir and organ.
Songs from The Temple by Christopher Hussey is a new work commissioned by HCS and receiving its world première performance. The piece sets three poems by George Herbert – The Dawning, Love, and The Star – and is scored for solo voices, mixed choir and organ.
The programme also includes George Herbert’s metrical psalm The Lord is my Shepherd, set to the third psalm tune of the sixteenth century English composer Thomas Tallis and scored for mixed choir; as well as poems by Herbert set by the twentieth century English composers Eric Thiman and Michael Head for soprano and baritone soloists.
Sunday lunchtime concert: Viennese café music
Sunday 22nd May 12 noon.
Tickets £15, including a glass of Buck’s Fizz
Joanna Ly (violin) and Martin Andre (piano) will play music by Dvorak, Mendelssohn and Fritz Kreisler.

Vernacular Slide Photography and Highgate School’s Collection
Elaine Woodbridge has been a volunteer archivist at Highgate School for the last two years working on the school’s photographic slide collection and other projects. Elaine has been fascinated with mid-century slide photographs since she began collecting them more than twenty years ago in South Africa. In her journey with old slides, she has digitised and creatively edited them, shared them on social media, made art and given public talks about them.
Found photographs have an enthusiastic following in popular culture where people do everything from collecting, blogging and making art with them, to trying to reunite them with their original owners. The snapshots of yesterday have also influenced mainstream photography and given rise to new aesthetic traditions. They have great creative potential and have been used by artists in a myriad of ways. But they also contain an intimate and important record of people’s lives and society in past decades, as well as the worlds of work and education. Elaine has read widely on this subject which finds itself at the meeting place of technology, history, popular culture, fine art and archives.
Elaine is completing a Masters degree in Archives and Records Management at the University of Dundee and previously studied Archaeology, Anthropology and Sociology at the University of Cape Town. She is not averse to scratching around in flea markets and dusty drawers for lost photographs. Elaine was delighted to be given the task of working with Highgate’s slide collections, showing school life in the 1960s and 1980s, which she says is a treasure trove of surprising images that open a window on decades past, and is a valuable component of the school’s archive holdings. She asks what we can learn from them and how to understand the collection against the backdrop of British vernacular photography.
Elaine will discuss concepts of snapshot photography and offer behind-the-scenes insights into caring for and archiving a slide collection, covering storage and preservation, copyright and digitisation. Her talk will be illustrated with stunning images from her South African collection, as well as those of Highgate School. She will comment on the value of the collection for bringing to light the school’s changing education technology, built environment and way of life. The 1960s to 1980s was a period on the brink of great technological and digital change. It is a world still cherished in the living memories of many parents and alumni.
Join Elaine Woodbridge at Highgate School on June 6 2022 to hear more about this intriguing topic and see a glimpse of life at the school back in the day.

The Blue Town Trio features emerging London-based talent Zoe Francis on vocals, multi-award winning Jim Mullen on guitar (Morrissey Mullen, Terry Callier, Mose Alison, Georgie Fame, Gene Harris), and the incomparable Ross Stanley on Hammond organ.
It’s a cracking repertoire of classic standards with fresh arrangements. Songs including “Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most”, “Too Late Now”, “Skylark”, “Who Can I Turn To”, “Midnight Sun”, “Nature Boy”, “Daydream”, “My One and Only Love”, “In a Sentimental Mood”, “Cinema Paradiso” and many more. Zoe’s love of a great lyric and beautiful voice set against the rich layers of sound from Ross’s Hammond and Jim’s melodic blues lines make this trio sound like a mini orchestra – not to be missed!
“Something a bit special is going on when this artist takes the stage…a classy poised singer” – London Jazz News on Zoe Francis
“Zoe communicates a love and understanding of the classic American Songbook with the lightest of touches, her choice of not-quite forgotten songs is canny too” – Dave Gelly (The Observer)
Tina Leslie – London Dreams – 10-23 June 2022
These oil and mixed-media paintings from London-based artist Tina Leslie speak to each other in their contrasts, both in theme, between city and countryside, and in style, between representative and abstract. The cityscapes capture atmospheric light and show familiar landmarks from unexpected vantage points, while the paintings in the Nature’s Threads series have a viewpoint that is up close, in the tangle of nature itself.
