The Fireplace Gallery, Beechwood Avenue, Mutley, Plymouth -

'The Fireplace Gallery' is a Plymouth based gallery, sited in a domestic, unused fireplace, showcasing micro-exhibitions by emerging and established artists. The artists who are showcased in The Fireplace Gallery have all, at some time, stayed (as guests) in the proprietors (Hannah Jones & Neil Rose) home.

The 6 exhibitions respond to the specific nature of the gallery and its physical constraints (a small, recess/nook space measuring 37cm x 30cm x 57cm). The gallery also features a ‘sister space’ with a specially installed artwork by Richard Dedomenici featured on the gallery’s adjoining ‘Mantle Space’ and a gallery shop, showcasing artist’s ephemera, limited editions and works made for this context.

The gallery is open every Sunday from 3.00-6.00pm from the 18th Sept – 4th Dec.

We look forward to welcoming you in our home!

As of December the 5th 2011, the Fireplace Gallery is temporarily closed, to be kept up to date with information about future developments please email:

'The Fireplace Gallery' is being run as part of Come to Ours (CtO). CtO is a project being developed by a group of artists (Rachel Dobbs, Bryony Gillard, Mark James, Hannah Jones, Beth Emily Richards and Neil Rose) who have come together to develop a programme of ‘fringe’ art events to run alongside the British Art Show 7 (BAS7) exhibition in Plymouth (from Sept-Dec 2011).

Come to Ours is supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and by Plymouth City Council. For further details please visit the Come to Ours website: cometoours.co.uk

BAS7 is widely recognized as the most ambitious and influential exhibition of contemporary British art. BAS7 is curated by Lisa Le Feuvre and Tom Morton and includes work by 39 artists from the last five years. For more information visit: www.britishartshow.co.uk.
