Exhibition
Psychedelic Caravan - Forman's Smokehouse Gallery
The PSYCHEDELIC CARAVAN comes to Fish Island and sets up camp in FORMAN'S SMOKEHOUSE GALLERY, stepping down from it two modern gypsies from opposite ends of the globe.
Marty Thornton and Bernard Rangel are refreshingly distinct, unique, auto-didactic artists that in their own right are bigger than life characters. They have emerged from the school of hard knocks and both were born in the 50’s. Their art embraces colour and form giving life and flavour and uncannily shows that harmony independent of cultural influences does exist. Marty Thornton was born in the East End of Romany gypsy roots and Bernard Rangel in Aden of Portuguese-Indian ones, both have art flowing in their veins.
