In this episode I talk to the wonderful artist David Gledhill about his work and upcoming exhibition at Rogue Gallery, Manchester. David has exhibited widely both in the UK and internationally, including Frankfurt, Berlin, Milan and Brussels and was recently awarded a PhD from PAHC at the Manchester School of Art.

In addition to his activity as an artist, David has contributed writing and reviews to numerous artist’s projects and publications. He is co-director of Rogue Artists’ Studios CIC in Manchester, the largest artists’ studios in the North of England.

David’s recent work centres on the use of both personal and institutional photographic archives to produce sequences of paintings that address historical and political themes through the lived experience of their subjects. Works by David are in the collections of East Sussex County Council, Rank Xerox, Halliwell's, Touchstones Rochdale, Deutsche Kreditbank AG Berlin, and Steven Berkoff.

Please do go and check out Davids fabulous exhibition titled Parties, - the private view is this Saturday June 14th from 2-5pm at Rogue studios, 2-6 Barrass Street, Openshaw, Manchester M11 1PU and will be open to the public every Friday and Saturday 12-5 pm until July 27th.
