Great exhibition of work by Patrick Hughes

Posted by Dominic Standish on August 22, 2011 · Leave a Comment

If you have the chance over the next week, I strongly recommend going to see an exhibition of art by Patrick Hughes in London.
This exhibition has been very positively reviewed in the UK newspaper The Independent here: Patrick Hughes: Fifty Years in Show Business, Flowers Galleries, London
Patrick’s work includes many fascinating paintings of Venice and he kindly donated one to be used on this website and for the cover of the book Venice in Environmental Peril? Myth and Reality by Dominic Standish (January 2012).
