John Greenwood’s paintings were featured in Young British Artists 1 at Saatchi Gallery in 1991. An important decision to commit to full-time parenting rather than pursue a visible art career has resulted in him developing his work privately over the intervening years. Turps Gallery is now presenting his powerful singular vision.
Born in Leeds, 1959, John Greenwood graduated from the Royal College of Art in 1990, where he received the Cite Internationale Paris residency award, the Burston Award and the Midland Bank purchase award. Solo exhibitions include: Jason Rhodes Gallery, London (1995 and 1998), Galerie Helmut Pabst, Frankfurt (2000) and Europaische Zentral Galerie, Frankfurt (2002). In 2016 he took part in ‘El Dorado’ curated by Juan Bolivar at Horatio Junior Gallery, London and Geraint Evans’ ‘The Abject Object’ at Wimbledon College of Art. He was also a finalist in the Marmite Prize for Painting V.
