NOW IN ITS
19TH YEAR!
Over 8000 paintings are submitted
each year to the prestigious Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. Hundreds of
artists receive a rejection slip in the post to say that their work will not be
hung in this major show. Only 800 pictures finally make it onto the walls of the
Royal Academy.
“A Second Chance”
The Llewellyn Alexander Gallery,
inspired by the original 'Salon des Refusés' held in Paris in the 19th century,
will hang the best of this year's work submitted to the Royal Academy but not
hung. Hundreds of artists bring their work for a further selection process at
the Gallery where they will be told immediately whether they have been
successful or not. Oils, Watercolours and pastels of all sizes pass through the
doors of this lively Gallery on the South Bank (opposite the Old Vic Theatre).
Every painting is for sale and may be taken by the purchaser straight away.
creating space for another to be displayed. All paintings will be on show for
three weeks, after which new work will be hung. Over the years purchasers have
returned again and again, commenting that this alterative exhibition contains
more original and exciting work! The Gallery is open from 10am until 7.30pm.
Monday to Saturday giving the opportunity for everyone to see this regularly
changing show.
