MEMBERS’ EXHIBITIONS Review Service

You will know that we are always eager to hear about our members’ art-related activities, especially one-person exhibitions, and to publicize these in the blog and newsletter. We also now have in place a team of reviewers who have covered FPS Group and other London exhibitions in recent years. These you will no doubt have read and we hope you will agree that they add an attractive and, indeed, a very useful addition to the blog/newsletter. We are keen to extend this review service to our own members, so that in the course of the year we can present a mix of informed writing both on the current work of FPS artists, and on the art scene generally. If you are planning a one-person show in the near future, or making a significant contribution to a group, and would be interested in an independent review for our publications, please contact ‘FPS Review Service’ 282 St. John’s Road, Hemel Hempstead, Herts HP1 1QG Alternatively e-mail philip@whitehousestudio.fsnet.co.uk or ring 01442 264766.
