Nick Dillon: Artists & Albums

[df-subtitle]17 Nov 2016 – 4 Dec 2016[/df-subtitle]

This is Manchester born, Nick Dillon’s debut show in London. His 40 new pieces of art are heavily influenced by the pop cultural revolution in the north of England especially Northern Soul, Punk from the 80’s and the Brit-Pop era of the 90’s, all pioneering genres of their day – many of the artists and album covers feature prominently in this exhibition – while also calling back to some of the great popular artists like Bowie, Lemmy, Keith Richards, Kurt Cobain and Beck.

The work for this show is based around the artists and album covers that played a part in his life, most of his hand painted (not stencilled) canvases carry one of his signature styles, a deep embossing of lyrics from a song by the portrayed artist, into the canvas, a truly unique style mastered over time to create a subtle three dimensional piece of art from a two dimensional canvas.

Nick Dillon has produced a master class art exhibition of iconic pop art that bursts with colour and culture, this is a show not to be missed as you will find a deep emotional connection with your musical heroes, his superb style and iconic content.

His customers are a who’s who of famous people from tennis legends, rock stars, music producers and premier league footballers to name a few.
