Launching
Sir Quentin Blake’s
'NOW' exhibition
We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been named as the PR agency to launch Sir Quentin Blake’s newest exhibition ‘NOW’ at the Arc Gallery at Cromwell Place. Described as Quentin’s most exciting work ever (although we still love his Roald Dahl book covers), it will also be his first commercial exhibition in decades.
The partnership will include leading PR for the exhibition itself, driving footfall and awareness of Quentin Blake’s exhibition, as well as media relations for the private viewing taking place pre-opening.
The free-to-attend NOW exhibition runs from 31st January to 18th February and will include stunning large-scale portraits and imaginary compositions, all in Blake’s inimitable style; full of movement, humour, and pathos. The collection includes pen and ink drawings, plus new explorations in different formats and mediums, from ballpoint pens to watercolour and wax markers. The work on display will have a more adult feel than much of the work that made Blake one of the best-loved illustrators of all time. This is a rare opportunity to buy an original piece of artwork from the artist.
Talking about the partnership, Lucy Mart, Group Director and Chief Growth Officer at PrettyGreen said: “Quentin Blake is an iconic artist, so we are thrilled to be working with him and his team on his newest exhibition which he has been working on for the last 12 months. This kind of project is a rare one and we’re very grateful they have trusted the PrettyGreen team to raise awareness of his exciting new show.”
