Joe Hargan Born in 1952 in Glasgow, Joe studied drawing and painting at the Glasgow School of Art under Danny Ferguson, James Robertson and David Donaldson. A well recognised and respected figure on the Scottish art scene, Joe is past President to both the Paisley Art Institute and the Glasgow Art Club. He is the recipient of numerous Art Prizes and Awards and his work is collected worldwide.

Joe is a master of colour and tongue in cheek humour. His paintings are not only finely executed; they offer humorous and sometimes surreal vignettes of the good life, featuring Sniffy and various other characters within striking gallery and stately home settings.

Recurring symbols and metaphors abound within the paintings, and one is often treated to a painting within a painting, an old master within a new master.

This current collection features the exquisite studies of the girls Joe places in his larger work as Sniffy’s daughter, wife or lover.

Humorous narratives and dangerous stages sets are being played while Sargent and Canaletto pieces are watching on.

Endre Röder Endre Roder was born in Budapest in 1933. Spending much of his childhood in Malta he moved to the UK in 1949.

First a cartographical draughtsman, then an architect, Endre graduated as an art student and eventually lectured in art history.

Since the late 80’s he has worked as a highly successful full-time painter.

Endre’s paintings are highly distinctive and readily recognisable. Various influences are evident in his work including his Hungarian origins and early life in Malta. Endre draws upon his wide knowledge and fundamental understanding of art, to create careful compositions with his trademark use of colour and sense of decoration.

His paintings are always figurative. They are the result of skilful observation coupled with imagination of mostly of female figures set against wondrous interiors or landscape settings.
