Mobirise

turntable gallery is a newly established, contemporary art space, in the heart of Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire. Founded and directed by two internationally renowned artists - Dale Wells and Darren Neave (RCA), who met whilst studying at the University of Lincoln.

Our high street gallery space is kindly being supported by Skippko, an arts organisation based in Holbeck, Leeds.

Since March 2022, we hosted many shows, including Jake Chapman’s ‘HINTERGRUND’ exhibition, which featured brand new exclusive work. Our diary for 2023 will include shows by Tim Noble and Turner Prize winner Jeremy Deller.

turntable gallery is growing from strength to strength!

LONG LIVE LINCOLNSHIRE
(Warning Graphic Content)
Jeremy Deller
1 - 29 April 2023

turntable gallery is delighted to present a collection of works by acclaimed British artist, Jeremy Deller.

With themes ranging from political discord to the artistic ego, Deller traces this broad interests in art and culture, in part, to childhood visits to museums and galleries. After meeting Andy Warhol in 1986, Deller spent two weeks at The Factory in New York. He began making serious work in the early 1990s, often showing them outside of conventional galleries. In 1993, while his parents were on holiday, he secretly used the family home for an exhibition titled ‘Open Bedroom’.

Amongst his many accolades, Deller won the Turner Prize in 2004 with ‘Memory Bucket’, and represented Britain in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013. Over the past three decades he has become a guiding force in contemporary art. Much of his work ephemeral in nature, incorporating video, installation and live events including campaigning and protest, and as such avoids commodification.

The Entertainment of Cats
Peter Forster
25 February - 25 March 2023

turntable gallery is delighted to present work by Peter Forster (1934 -2021), one of the country’s preeminent wood engravers of the late 20th century.
Following National Service, Peter pursued a career as a freelance illustrator before taking employment in the Department of the Environment’s graphic design studio. Assigned the task of designing guide books, he felt 'he'd sold his soul' and left in 1985 to continue his life’s work as a wood engraver and printer.

The print, Honi Soit Qui Mal y Pense, (1988) was acquired by the V&A for their permanent collection, and was originally commissioned for Square Peg, a gay arts magazine. Peter had a gift for smuggling the seditious into the most austere of surroundings, with scintillating caricature and parody.

We can assess how badly damaged he is and give him a public space, so the townsfolk can see the amount of work that needs to be done. He can once again become the emblematic figurehead and a well-loved work of art. This is a great symbol of the town and needs to be re-kindled and nurtured!
