Description
23.50cm x 29.40cm
Oil on board
Born in Falmouth, Cornwall, 1965, Danny Markey studied at Falmouth School of Art (1983-84) and at Camberwell School of Art, London (1984-87). While still a student, he won first prize at the South Bank Picture Show in 1986, and was also a prize-winner in The London Group Open Exhibition, in 1993. Shortly after graduating, The Redfern Gallery gave Markey his first solo show in 1992, as well as sponsoring several painting trips abroad to America. Since then, he has had regular solo exhibitions at The Redfern Gallery, and a retrospective of his work was staged at the Old Jail Art Center in Albany, Texas, in 1997. Recent group shows include John Moores Liverpool Exhibition (2012), Lynn Painter-Stainers Prize (runner-up in 2013 and 2015) and Discerning Eye (regularly from 2000 onwards, when his work was first selected by Michael Parkinson). Most recently, Markey appeared in Towards Night, a large-scale survey show at Towner, Eastbourne, in 2016. This coincided with a retrospective of night paintings and works on paper, at The Redfern Gallery, described in The Financial Times by Jackie Wullschlager as "nocturnes that are both dystopian mysteries and particular, evocative descriptions of time and milieus".
