TREVOR PRICE
Trevor Price gained a BA
(Hons) in Fine Art/Printmaking at the Winchester School
of Art (1985-1988) and in 1995 was elected as an Associate
Member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers (ARE).
His figurative
works take as their influence the dynamics between men
and women. The narrative, humorous and often erotic and
occasionally ridiculous images being shown become a reflection
of all our lives. One drypoint entitled "everyone
thinking about sex, everywhere" perhaps demonstrates
this best.
There is another very different aspect of his work - his
abstract prints, with their strong clear colours and sometimes
geometric form, leads the viewer in quite a different
direction.

His exhibitions include: the Open Print Exhibition
of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers (London
1988, 1991, 1992); the Royal West of England Academy
Open Print Exhibition (Bristol, 1994,1997); the
National Print Exhibition at the Mall Galleries
(London 1995, 1996, 1997); the Zella Gallery (London,
solo show in 1996, and 1998); Christies Contemporary
Arts, Bath (May 1997, solo show, and two-person
shows in 1994 and 1995): Attic Gallery two-person
show 2002.

In 1993, some of Trevor's images were selected to illustrate
the Encyclopaedia of Printmaking Techniques, published by
Headline; and in 1994 P&O commissioned an exclusive limited
edition of three of his etchings for the Mediterranean cruise
ship Oriana.
At the 1997 National Print Exhibition, the Mall Galleries,
London, Trevor was awarded both the Zenith Purchase Prize
and the "Printmaking Today" Award.
