Solo Exhibition - Mark Curryer
9th - 16th March 2024
Thank you to everyone that attended either our meet the artist meet and greet on the 9th of March, or came along in the following 2 weeks to view our Mark Curryer solo exhibition.
Both Mark and ourselves enjoyed the day getting to talk to people about his work and asking some of those questions about how he come up with the techniques he does.
It was a successful day with a number of pieces of Art sold and collected, with the added bonus of a personalised dedication from Mark. We don’t think he would have dreamed he would end up signing a brick, not your standard signing.
Unveiling New Original Paintings
We offered the chance to come and meet leading cityscape artist Mark Curryer as he launched an exciting new collection of mixed media originals depicting cities from around the world. Including some new Bristol paintings exclusive to FIZZ.
This was relaxed afternoon, where customers had the chance to enjoy a drink, chat with Mark and learn more about his work and inspiration. Signings and dedication opportunities were available on the day.

About Mark Curryer
An early interest in painting and drawing resulted in a number of awards at a young age for Eastbourne born Mark Curryer. After studying Three-Dimensional Design at Art College Mark enjoyed a successful career in the city. But the pull towards art was never far away and he eventually returned to his real love – painting. He now lives and works in Eastbourne as a full-time painter from his home studio.
Mark’s captivating cityscapes exude boldness and atmosphere, drawing inspiration from distinctive architecture and the intricacies of daily urban existence. Rains transformative effect on the city, especially during the night, fascinates him, as do the myriad reflections cast by multiple light sources. Notably, Mark employs unconventional techniques in his artistic process, opting for tools like rollers and scrapers instead of traditional brushes.
Some areas of his canvas are loose and abstract, others contain incredible detail – but both linking to the wider setting of the painting.
