Move 1
by Maxwell Jackson

We are an online only art gallery, so you won’t find us in any high street in any town or city in the world!

And, 'because anything’s possible…', at Green Chair Gallery we bring you artworks from wherever we find them, irrespective of location.

So 'online only' really means without limits: for artists, art lovers and art collectors.

But you will see exhibitions, separate gallery 'rooms', and even on-line previews. All taking place as if you had come to the gallery in your high street.

So come in, be welcome, and see the artworks and artists we are proud to present you to.

Currently Exhibiting

Imagination, interpretation, resolution

This exhibition challenges brain and perception, at the same time as offering aesthetic appreciation of both form and solution.

What DO we mean by that? Rosaleen Manklow’s work is partly about challenging the mind’s power of imagination – hers and the viewer’s – to gain greater understanding of self, to perceive aesthetic experience and to bring together concepts, images, symbols from across cultures.

Maxwell Jackson’s Solitaire series is also about the imagination’s power – its power not just to appreciate form, colour, shape, but also to unravel. As he says, “The intention is to echo some of the feelings experienced whilst playing Solitaire, from confident charge to hair-tearing frustration, meanwhile inviting the mind to wander in-between.” And the accompanying feelings in doing so, and perhaps – or perhaps not – arriving at a sense of ‘resolution’ are part of that emotional activity of the imagination.

But both are also sort of saying “take it or leave it.”

Past Exhibitions

Being online-only Green Chair Gallery can offer you the chance to view previous exhibitions.
So if you are new to Green Chair Gallery, or if you just missed a previous exhibition you can click on the Past Exhibitions heading to catch up.

We recently celebrated our second anniversary as an online-only art gallery. Looking back from the start of 2012 we have shown more than 24 exhibitions with more to come. We continue to make available many of our shows in the Past Exhibitions section for around six months, so as new exhibitions start older ones are taken down. Welcome, of course, to Green Chair Gallery!
