Off
the Wall Contemporary Art
Mill Lane Mousehole TR19 6RP Tel:01736 731115
Off the Wall Contemporary Art has built up a reputation for showing
work that is very different from that normally shown in a Cornish seaside
gallery - work which is slightly surreal, often with a touch of carnival,
and usually with a strong figurative bias.Nothing illustrates this better
than the work of gallery partner Cyril Croucher. Cyril’s highly distinctive
paintings with their startling perspectives, whether depicting Cornish
harbours or the dark calli of Venice, share a common theme with the
work of other gallery artists - to show the seemingly familiar in a
new light....and to have a bit of fun along the way. Artists regularly
exhibiting include Padraig Macmidhachain, David Eustace, Jo March, Brenda
King, Heather Bray, Barbara Dalgarno and Carole Green. OPEN: Mid Feb
to November - Monday to Saturday 11am - 5pm Open on Sundays in summer
Winter opening times differ - please phone for details
