"When you consider one of John's paintings, you are intrigued and repelled in equal measure, as you are forced to acknowledge your own unique reaction to such powerful imagery."
An Artist with an incredible career behind him, Lyons has considerable achievements in visual arts, curating, poetry, teaching, adjudication and he was even a Purchaser for the Arts Council National Collection in the eighties. He co-founded the Hourglass Studio Gallery in Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire and remains a board member to this day.
We are immensely proud to be working with an Artist of Lyon's skill and standing. He has such a vast back-catalogue that a major retrospective of his important career is long overdue. We are also looking forward to working with him on new projects such as 'Chimera', his first solo exhibition in Cambridgeshire since his show at Three Cups Gallery in Ely in 2005.
