PLYMOUTH EXPOSED: New Exhibition by Richard Allman
PLYMOUTH EXPOSED
An exhibition by Richard Allman
at Theatre Royal Plymouth
4th December 2021 – 2nd April 2022
A new selection of paintings: My personal Plymouth subjects that fascinate me in various ways, with a bit of irony, lots of contrasts and several spots that other people wouldn’t give a second glance. Paintings, linocuts and lots of drawings of the theatre’s new huge ‘Messenger’ sculpture.
