Highgate Hill, oil on canvas.
We are delighted to shows a significant body of work from acclaimed local artist Philip Sanderson, who captures townscapes and other scenes from a wide variety of sources, particularly London and Highgate. He aims for a lightness of touch and fluidity that is at once engaging and appealing. At the same time, his work retains a discipline and structure that gives it weight, so that the overall impression is one of beauty and substance.
Philip paints in oils and watercolours and says that he “endeavours to represent subjects in a loose and attractive way”. His work is particularly concerned with the effect of light, particularly sunlight, and how this gives subtly contrasting tones of light and dark to his subject matter. He often depicts people in his pictures, representing life and movement and adding another layer of interest and relevance to the familiar local scenes.
For many years an active member of the Highgate Watercolour Group and a participant in art courses and local art shows, Philip also had a career in the NHS, where he was a consultant microbiologist working in Edgware and Barnet. He studied problems of infections acquired within hospitals and helped to found and edit a journal dedicated to this subject.
This exhibition is an opportunity to see a collection of pictures from the last five years, following a successful exhibition at St. Martin-in-the-Fields. Most of the works are oils; all work will be for sale.
Highgate Gallery open Tuesday-Friday 1-5pm, Saturday 11am-4pm, Sunday 11am-5pm; closed Mondays.

Tom Scase – New Horizons. 15-28 January 2021
Tom Scase’s recent works are vibrant and zestful and mark a welcome start to Highgate Gallery’s new year of shows, following the lockdowns and postponed shows of 2020.
Despite their joyful presentation, a darkly sinister undertone lingers beneath the playful surface marks in these paintings, creating strange landscapes where cloned sheep, menacing bees and warplanes are juxtaposed with abstract forms. Materials used include paints, collage, ink, varnishes and natural substances such as tree bark and mud from Hampstead Heath.
Horizons, which are a preoccupation in many of the works, become a metaphor for ambition, for the future, for what lies beyond, the limitless limit…and when we look at them further, our perception of space – as well as our relationship with nature – is called into question. Even Scase’s humour has an edge of danger, and we are constantly challenged about what reality it is we are facing.
Tom Scase is a Suffolk-born artist who has lived in Highgate for many years. He won first prize with the New Contemporaries and Europa Prize, Belgium, and has exhibited widely including at the Sainsbury Centre, Norwich, Sandnes, Norway (with Derek Jarman), Southampton University, and at South Hill Park Arts Centre (Arts Council), the Cello Factory, the ICA and the RCA in London. He is a member of the London Group, originally founded in 1913 by 32 artists including David Bomberg and Jacob Epstein.
