Pyramid Gallery owner Terry Brett first met Trevor Price when he was working as Brenda Hartill’s print editioner in 1995.

Trevor has exhibited at the gallery in Stonegate, York, each year since then and is doing so again this spring. “It’s a great source of satisfaction to Pyramid Gallery that Trevor has shown his work here without a break for 16 years, during which time we’ve shown more than 250 pieces of his work in many group exhibitions and four solo shows,” says Terry, who was first impressed by the Cornish artist’s technique of printing on to plaster tiles.

“The images were intricately inscribed symbols of courtship, humorously used as building blocks for houses and sailing ships, with wistful lovers staring into each others eyes as they considered a future together.”

This remains a recurring theme for Trevor’s work, which has been exhibited at the Royal Academy and has earned the Winchester School of Art graduate such awards as the 2011 Printmaker of the Year at Printfest, in Ulverston, in the Lake District.

Since his election to the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers in 1995, Trevor has enjoyed a prolific career, jointly running a studio with fellow printmaker Mychael Barratt in South East London. His substantial body of work – both prints and paintings – has been bought or commissioned by the Bank of England, Yale University, Cunard, Glaxo Smith-Klein and John Lewis plc among other institutions.

His Pyramid show will run until July 4, open daily from 10am to 5pm.

On display too is the Purple Paradiso work of Peter Layton and glass makers from the London Glassblowing Studio. Bruce Marks, Marie Worre Hastrup Holm, Jochen Ott, Layne Rowe, Cathryn Shilling, Louis Thompson and Anthony Scala are all exhibiting.
