For this year’s Brighton Fringe Festival exhibiton, Castor and Pollux have shown local artist Becky Blair. Her giclee and screen prints have always been popular here, and we were very excited about the canvases which have joined them in the gallery. Always bright and colourful, Becky’s exhibition is the best way to start the Spring. ay paintings we haven’t sold are going to Australia for her next exhibition there. If you see a painting here, that is no longer is the gallery, we still may be able to get it for you. Just get in touch.
‘None of my paintings are planned. They appear organically through a web of under-painting. Lacy pools of watery paint, applied layer upon layer, provide the groundwork for my landscapes and people to appear. I aspire to imagery that’s fleeting and momentary and has the potential to be poignant. To retain some mystery, and have gaps for the viewer to explore with their own imagination.‘
Becky’s paintings are now being shown in Australia and so are no longer at the gallery. If you are interested in any, please get in touch as we can fine out if they are still available.

Rob Ryan – Paper cuts and prints
13 September – 20 October 2008
Swirling, intricate bells, birds, trees and stars fill the prints and paper cuts of silhouetted lovers surrounded by floating poetry. Rob Ryan shares his romantic thoughts with us at Castor and Pollux with an exhibition of screen prints, printed tiles and paper cuts. ‘My work operates on an openly emotional level, and it’s quite sentimental, which I don’t think is a bad thing.’You may not have visited Ryantown before, but you may recognise the work of Mister Rob through his many creative collaborations with Vogue, Paul Smith and Liberty. Here are tales and poems to rival the darkest of Grimm’s fairy-tales ‘The actual germ of an idea is just a moment of thinking, maybe that’s how things are, or how they should be, or how I want them to be.’
Rob Ryan - Ladder Kiss
Rob Ryan’s world is filled with dark as well as light, where love, hate, loss, pain, fear and death are to be found. All of which are very beautiful. The simple and straightforward subjects of Rob Ryan’s work are in marked contrast to the deceptively sophisticated manner in which they are made; painstakingly hand-cut with the smallest scalpels from the most delicate of papers.
