A riot of colour and queer expression is unleashed this summer as ‘Flamboyant Flamingos’ gather at Grundy Art Gallery in Blackpool.
This summer, Grundy Art Gallery proudly presents a major exhibition of newly commissioned work by the acclaimed, Blackpool-based artist, Garth Gratrix (b. 1984). Flamboyant Flamingos is Gratrix’s largest and most prestigious exhibition to date. It is also the first time in recent history that a Blackpool born and Blackpool based artist has been invited to exhibit in Grundy’s much coveted summer season slot.
Alongside Gratrix’s body of new work, Gratrix and the Grundy have also worked together to bring the work of world-renowned artists Derek Jarman (1942-1994), and Felix Gonzalez-Torres (1957-1996) to the gallery.
The exhibition runs until 7th September 2024.
