About the exhibition, artist and work:
Hu Genshen - Traditional Chinese paintings
Hu Genshen, artist born in 1966 in China, and living in Tianshui city, has been painting in traditional style for over 30 years now and uses traditional ink and brushwork to portray ideas of some of the most breathtaking Chinese landscapes and flora.
Though, Gallery4allarts specialises in contemporary abstract art in its wide sense, this spring, welcomes full-heartedly, this collection of 32 representative style original paintings, which after a long winter, offers the audience a delightful journey into the realms of nature and Chinese landscape, warming up the hearts.
This collection was introduced to Nicole Bartos/ Gallery4llarts by local Chinese architect and Qi Gong master Xia Lu, who across many years, has been contributing immensely towards introducing and spreading traditional Chinese culture and meditation teachings in Liverpool, through the means of Qi Gong, Thai Qi and art.

Both exhibitions will be open to the general public on Saturday, 12th March, 12-4pm. All welcome.
About the exhibition, artist and work:
Nicole Bartos – “Capturing Threads of Light, 2”
Nicole Bartos, is an artist fascinated by metaphysics, spiritual philosophy, discovery of the extra-sensorial world and particularly by the spiritual and healing potential of abstract painting and music. Acknowledges art as a ‘healing force’ and beneficial. She has been creating and exhibiting, since 1997, in the field of abstract, experimental (research) and conceptual art using a range of media: mixed-media, installation, land-art, ceramics/ sculpture, painting, drawing and photography. Independently, Nicole has been curating many art projects and exhibitions to date.
Since, 2006 Nicole Bartos has initiated and runs Gallery4allarts.
Graduated from the Ioan Andreescu Visual Arts Academy, Cluj - Napoca, Romania, (presently, the Academy is known as the University of Fine arts and Design from Cluj-Napoca), and though she has trained in Decorative Arts/ Industrial Design and Artistic Ceramics, has been painting for over 19 years. She excells within the field of experimental and mixed media art, pursuing a personal research for ”Structures and geometries” as part of her Postgraduate studies.
The experimental skill and endeavour for inventiveness using original combinations have always characterised the artist, and whether she was using ceramics, mixed media, painting or land art, she has always managed to find creative solutions and a unique style.
In her past conceptual orientations through paining, the artist has been influenced by some artists’ works such as, Soulages, Chagall, Zao Wu-Ki, oriental style brushwork techniques (Japanese and Chinese), Christo, and most recently, since 2007, by artist and philosopher Fanchon Frohlich, through Collective Phenomena. (Since late 90’s, Frohlich initiated the ‘Collective Phenomena’, igniting the idea of dialogue between the conscious and subconscious through art and the wonderful exchange between artists at level of their higher self, while painting together in dialogue and accompanied by live music.) As an influence and result of this, Bartos has applied the idea of creating with and for the benefit of the higher self and so, in art she encourages free, experimental abstract painting in dialogue or collectively with her students, most of whom don’t have an art background.
Her latest paintings, continue the earlier cycle started a year ahead, “Capturing threads of light”, and bring a new approach within the experimental and expressive abstract brushwork techniques, that allow music and energy to take shape through colour and vibrations.

This exhibition presents a selection of works by artist Alex Simpson, based in Stoke-on-Trent, who has been part of the St. Ives artists’ community in the 70s. Born in Wigan, Alex has been working and living in Stoke-on -Trent for quite a while, dedicating his life to art, particularly to sculpture making, mixed media, woodcut prints and painting. With a great admiration for Brancusi’s art, Alex Simpson ha created a body of work that shocks through both inspiration and quantity. Recently visiting his residence to meet with both artist and his art, I have found an almost monastic atmosphere, through its creative spirit habiting it, powerful energy that shaped ‘chef d-oeuvre’ profiles in sandstone, marble, wood and steel. This artist’s house and garden so full of artwork almost eliminated any comfort and the idea of a contemporary home; it has become entirely a huge studio and gallery space. It worth a visit at least. With constant exhibitions in London, Alex recently has become part of the group exhibition and competition “People and Love” (same venue), and has won the public vote award. Exhibition organised by Gallery4allarts (www.gallery4allarts.com).
Exhibition open until 3 May 2008.
Open for visits: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 2-6pm.

"Fanchon Fröhlich’s paintings are essentially neural, in that their explosive delivery of colour maps out work that takes its direction from inner landscapes given the form of abstract configuration. With a background in linguistic philosophy and science, Fanchon began painting at the Liverpool College of Art, largely as a figurative artist, before her seminal involvement with the etcher S.W. Hayter’s Atelier 17 in Paris, an experience that radically challenged her formative experiments with figurative painting, and transformed her into the liberated proponent of abstract expressionism who we know today. Only a small number of Fanchon’s early works have survived, but amongst them is the achingly sensitive portrait of her late husband, the physicist, Herbert Frohlich, shown here, as a superb example of her ability to bring the complex inner thinker to light, so that we the viewer are confronted directly with the man’s characteristic preoccupation with thought processes, as his means of connecting with the quantum universe by way of physics.
Part of Fanchon’s greatness lies in her ability to continually reinvent herself as an artist. Her writings on philosophy, science and art, her immense European culture, that also takes in the work of the American abstract expressionists, as well as the Japanese influences on her art, initiated by a period of work with Goto San in Kyoto, have all combined over the years, to the continuous and lively remaking of her art as the dominant expression of a life committed to imaginative creativity.
In 1991, Fanchon always in search of the new founded the Collective Phenomena, an art movement characterised by having several painters working abstractly together on a surface that takes its force from concentrated spontaneity within the participants, the activity often being performed live to the accompaniment of Lawrence Ball’s extempore piano music. The work of the Collective Phenomena, beautiful, disturbing, powerfully conflicting and neurologically menacing, is integral to the provocatively challenging retrospective of an artist at last coming up for serious consideration as a major painter.
Fanchon’s connections to Liverpool too, as the concealed city buried in the subtext to her art, forms another important aspect of her creative growth as an artist, right from her early years of studying at the Liverpool College of Art, to assimilating the city’s indigenous culture into the textural density of her work as place, no matter how abstractly overwritten. Her work, always celebratory in tone and driving in energy, is the unstoppable example of an artist working with courage at the edge, and one who is prepared to accept all experience as subject matter for art, and to compound the risks proposed by pioneering into adventurous experimentation. I would point for example to the painting Visual Music V11 Lyrical Moon, a collaboration between Fanchon and Sylvie Le Seac’h, as a superb instance of the collective method, in which intense colour mixed with acute sensory experience, come together as the fusion of energies instrumental to creating a spontaneous work of visionary intensity. But for all Fanchon’s education in philosophic and scientific disciplines, the work is never prohibitively cerebral, but always moves seamlessly from mental conception to imaginative expression without trace of interruption.
Almost entirely conceived in Liverpool, in a studio with aerospace-silver walls, high up in her old 19th century house on Greenheys Road, Fanchon Fröhlich who works in a light peculiar to her adopted city, has produced a highly original body of work, edgy, impacting, colourful, energised, and totally, unapologetically the real thing." Jeremy Reed

"Fanchon Frohlich at the Grange

An excellent retrospective of 5 decades of work by Fanchon Frohlich opened at The Grange, Ullet Road on Saturday. Fanchon was there of course, looking as elegant and arty as ever. Music by Frakture with whom she collaborated at Cornerstone last year and the gallery proprietor and curator Nicole Bartos read a lovely statement about the artist written by the poet, Jeremy Reed.
As well as several abstract paintings there are charcoal drawings, etchings, masses of sketch books, philosophical writings and my own favourite piece, I think, is her portrait of her late husband Herbert who for many years was Professor of Theoretical Physics at Liverpool University.
The following text is from her website...
Fanchon Fröhlich (nee Angst) was a philosophy student at the University of Chicago, where she worked with Rudolf Carnap (formerly of Vienna, and the founder of the Vienna Circle) and Oxford where she studied with Sir Prof. Peter Strawson, doing a doctorate in Primary and Secondary Qualities.
She studied at Liverpool College of Art, then moved to St Ives to work with Peter Lanyon. Later she travelled to Paris where she worked with the sculptor Szabo and finally studied at Stanley William Hayter’s etching atelier, Atelier 17, all of the time preserving her faith in Abstract Expressionism.
Fanchon’s artwork unites philosophy of science and art, evident for instance in the ‘Position of Light in Art’ and the ‘Paradoxes of Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art’ to the book she co-edited with Sylvie Le Seac'h (who was also a pupil of Hayter): ‘S.W. Hayter Research on Experimental Drawing: Systems of Oscillating Fields‘.
Fanchon has produced both representational paintings - among which is the portrait of her husband to be displayed in the Royal Society (for Scientists) in London - and abstract expressionist paintings, etchings, and more recently ‘Collective Phenomena’.
’ Collective Phenomena’ is the name for a group of abstract artists painting collectively on the same surface, using the gestures of one then another as inspiration and results (in some cases) to a unusual counterpoint.
Viewing 2-6pm, Monday to Saturday or by appointment. Exhibition runs until April 12. 2008.

Research Information:
The Summer of Love was the summer of 1967, particularly in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco, where thousands of young people loosely and freely united for a new social experience. As a result, the hippie counterculture movement came into public awareness.
The beginning of the Summer of Love has popularly been attributed to the Human Be-In at Golden Gate Park on January 14, 1967. The size of that event awakened mass media to the hippie counterculture that was blossoming in the Haight-Ashbury. The movement was fed by the counterculture's own media, particularly The San Francisco Oracle, whose pass-around readership topped a half-million at its peak that year. The grassroots street theater/activism of The Diggers also garnered media attention.
College and high school students began streaming into the Haight on their spring break of 1967. City government leaders, determined to stop the influx of young people once schools let out for summer, brought added attention to the scene. An ongoing series of articles in local papers alerted national media to the hippies' growing momentum. That spring, Haight community leaders responded by forming the Council of the Summer of Love, giving the word-of-mouth event an official-sounding name
John Phillips of The Mamas and the Papas took 20 minutes to write the following lyrics for the song "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)": If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair... If you're going to San Francisco, Summertime will be a love-in there".
Scott McKenzie's recording of the song was released in May 1967. The song was designed originally to promote the June 1967 Monterey Pop Festival, the world's first major rock festival, which was attended by over 200,000 people. "San Francisco" became an instant hit (#4 in the U. S., #1 in the U.K.) and quickly transcended its original purpose.
Album cover, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club BandThe evolution of The Beatles and their music also contributed to the global impact of the Summer of Love. The Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band was released on June 1, 1967, in Europe and two days later in the U.S. With its psychedelic influences, Indian instrumentals, vivid album cover and drug references, it encapsulated the very essence of the Summer of Love.
The Beatles had moved beyond their "moptop" era, and on June 25, 1967, their song "All You Need Is Love" was heard around the world as part of the "Our World" radio broadcast, further emphasizing the countercultural ideals of love, freedom, and unity.

An exhibition at The Cornerstone Gallery, Liverpool guest curated by Arthur Roberts from Loop Gallery.

Private View - Thursday 22nd February, 6-8pm
Exhibition open - Friday 23rd February to Friday 23rd March 2007

Loop is celebrating Liverpool’s 800th birthday with a survey of abstract practitioners working within and around the city in 2007. OVERVIEW 07 demonstrates the diverse and colourful energy that is generated by many individuals working within the inexhaustible realms of abstraction.

Loop, which is the city's foremost independent promoter of abstract art on Merseyside is bringing this collection together to spotlight the celebration of today’s living homegrown artists.

This pioneering exhibition consists of thirty abstract artists who work in and around the City of Liverpool and have contributed to a new vibrant resurgence of visual arts.

The artists represent a new Avant-Garde which is filled with dynamic colourful energy whose diverse approaches make an inspiring landmark upon Liverpool’s cultural renaissance. The works on show range from colourful painted compositions, print, photography, constructions and sculpture all encapsulating a driving force of intrigue and contemplation.

This show represents the heart of the creative community of Liverpool, these are the artists who highlighted the creative bedrock which Capital of Culture was built upon. When the all flashing and dancing lights are slightly dimmed these are the practitioners who will constantly add colour to Liverpool’s cultural landscape.

Loop organizer Arthur Roberts says,
“ Its extraordinary to witness such a vibrant and varied language that abstract art is, to see thirty diverse artworks sparkling with energy and life is a privilege to behold”. Arthur continues, “working in partnership with Hope University has be an absolute pleasure. It has taken a lot of patience and hard work, but the combination of exceptional artists and an impressive venue at the Cornerstone has made this whole experience a joy”.

Both exhibitions will be open to the general public on Saturday, 12th March, 12-4pm. All welcome. About the exhibition, artist and work: Nicole Bartos – “Capturing Threads of Light, 2” Nicole Bartos, is an artist fascinated by metaphysics, spiritual philosophy, discovery of the extra-sensorial world and particularly by the spiritual and healing potential of abstract painting and music. Acknowledges art as a ‘healing force’ and beneficial. She has been creating and exhibiting, since 1997, in the field of abstract, experimental (research) and conceptual art using a range of media: mixed-media, installation, land-art, ceramics/ sculpture, painting, drawing and photography. Independently, Nicole has been curating many art projects and exhibitions to date. Since, 2006 Nicole Bartos has initiated and runs Gallery4allarts. Graduated from the Ioan Andreescu Visual Arts Academy, Cluj - Napoca, Romania, (presently, the Academy is known as the University of Fine arts and Design from Cluj-Napoca), and though she has trained in Decorative Arts/ Industrial Design and Artistic Ceramics, has been painting for over 19 years. She excells within the field of experimental and mixed media art, pursuing a personal research for ”Structures and geometries” as part of her Postgraduate studies. The experimental skill and endeavour for inventiveness using original combinations have always characterised the artist, and whether she was using ceramics, mixed media, painting or land art, she has always managed to find creative solutions and a unique style. In her past conceptual orientations through paining, the artist has been influenced by some artists’ works such as, Soulages, Chagall, Zao Wu-Ki, oriental style brushwork techniques (Japanese and Chinese), Christo, and most recently, since 2007, by artist and philosopher Fanchon Frohlich, through Collective Phenomena. (Since late 90’s, Frohlich initiated the ‘Collective Phenomena’, igniting the idea of dialogue between the conscious and subconscious through art and the wonderful exchange between artists at level of their higher self, while painting together in dialogue and accompanied by live music.) As an influence and result of this, Bartos has applied the idea of creating with and for the benefit of the higher self and so, in art she encourages free, experimental abstract painting in dialogue or collectively with her students, most of whom don’t have an art background. Her latest paintings, continue the earlier cycle started a year ahead, “Capturing threads of light”, and bring a new approach within the experimental and expressive abstract brushwork techniques, that allow music and energy to take shape through colour and vibrations.

Born in Wigan, Alex has been working and living in Stoke-on -Trent for quite a while, dedicating his life to art, particularly to sculpture making, mixed media, woodcut prints and painting. With a great admiration for Brancusi’s art, Alex Simpson ha created a body of work that shocks through both inspiration and quantity. Recently visiting his residence to meet with both artist and his art, I have found an almost monastic atmosphere, through its creative spirit habiting it, powerful energy that shaped ‘chef d-oeuvre’ profiles in sandstone, marble, wood and steel. This artist’s house and garden so full of artwork almost eliminated any comfort and the idea of a contemporary home; it has become entirely a huge studio and gallery space. It worth a visit at least. With constant exhibitions in London, Alex recently has become part of the group exhibition and competition “People and Love” (same venue), and has won the public vote award. Exhibition organised by Gallery4allarts (www.gallery4allarts.com). Exhibition open until 3 May 2008. Open for visits: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 2-6pm.

Contact: nbartos@gmail.com or 07756912911 Many thanks to: The Grange, Jeremy Reed, Frakture, artinliverpool.com "Neural Supernovae"- by Jeremy Reed "Fanchon Fröhlich’s paintings are essentially neural, in that their explosive delivery of colour maps out work that takes its direction from inner landscapes given the form of abstract configuration. With a background in linguistic philosophy and science, Fanchon began painting at the Liverpool College of Art, largely as a figurative artist, before her seminal involvement with the etcher S.W. Hayter’s Atelier 17 in Paris, an experience that radically challenged her formative experiments with figurative painting, and transformed her into the liberated proponent of abstract expressionism who we know today. Only a small number of Fanchon’s early works have survived, but amongst them is the achingly sensitive portrait of her late husband, the physicist, Herbert Frohlich, shown here, as a superb example of her ability to bring the complex inner thinker to light, so that we the viewer are confronted directly with the man’s characteristic preoccupation with thought processes, as his means of connecting with the quantum universe by way of physics. Part of Fanchon’s greatness lies in her ability to continually reinvent herself as an artist. Her writings on philosophy, science and art, her immense European culture, that also takes in the work of the American abstract expressionists, as well as the Japanese influences on her art, initiated by a period of work with Goto San in Kyoto, have all combined over the years, to the continuous and lively remaking of her art as the dominant expression of a life committed to imaginative creativity. In 1991, Fanchon always in search of the new founded the Collective Phenomena, an art movement characterised by having several painters working abstractly together on a surface that takes its force from concentrated spontaneity within the participants, the activity often being performed live to the accompaniment of Lawrence Ball’s extempore piano music. The work of the Collective Phenomena, beautiful, disturbing, powerfully conflicting and neurologically menacing, is integral to the provocatively challenging retrospective of an artist at last coming up for serious consideration as a major painter. Fanchon’s connections to Liverpool too, as the concealed city buried in the subtext to her art, forms another important aspect of her creative growth as an artist, right from her early years of studying at the Liverpool College of Art, to assimilating the city’s indigenous culture into the textural density of her work as place, no matter how abstractly overwritten. Her work, always celebratory in tone and driving in energy, is the unstoppable example of an artist working with courage at the edge, and one who is prepared to accept all experience as subject matter for art, and to compound the risks proposed by pioneering into adventurous experimentation. I would point for example to the painting Visual Music V11 Lyrical Moon, a collaboration between Fanchon and Sylvie Le Seac’h, as a superb instance of the collective method, in which intense colour mixed with acute sensory experience, come together as the fusion of energies instrumental to creating a spontaneous work of visionary intensity. But for all Fanchon’s education in philosophic and scientific disciplines, the work is never prohibitively cerebral, but always moves seamlessly from mental conception to imaginative expression without trace of interruption. Almost entirely conceived in Liverpool, in a studio with aerospace-silver walls, high up in her old 19th century house on Greenheys Road, Fanchon Fröhlich who works in a light peculiar to her adopted city, has produced a highly original body of work, edgy, impacting, colourful, energised, and totally, unapologetically the real thing." Jeremy Reed Read review written by the artinliverpool.com: "Fanchon Frohlich at the Grange An excellent retrospective of 5 decades of work by Fanchon Frohlich opened at The Grange, Ullet Road on Saturday. Fanchon was there of course, looking as elegant and arty as ever. Music by Frakture with whom she collaborated at Cornerstone last year and the gallery proprietor and curator Nicole Bartos read a lovely statement about the artist written by the poet, Jeremy Reed. As well as several abstract paintings there are charcoal drawings, etchings, masses of sketch books, philosophical writings and my own favourite piece, I think, is her portrait of her late husband Herbert who for many years was Professor of Theoretical Physics at Liverpool University. The following text is from her website... Fanchon Fröhlich (nee Angst) was a philosophy student at the University of Chicago, where she worked with Rudolf Carnap (formerly of Vienna, and the founder of the Vienna Circle) and Oxford where she studied with Sir Prof. Peter Strawson, doing a doctorate in Primary and Secondary Qualities. She studied at Liverpool College of Art, then moved to St Ives to work with Peter Lanyon. Later she travelled to Paris where she worked with the sculptor Szabo and finally studied at Stanley William Hayter’s etching atelier, Atelier 17, all of the time preserving her faith in Abstract Expressionism. Fanchon’s artwork unites philosophy of science and art, evident for instance in the ‘Position of Light in Art’ and the ‘Paradoxes of Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art’ to the book she co-edited with Sylvie Le Seac'h (who was also a pupil of Hayter): ‘S.W. Hayter Research on Experimental Drawing: Systems of Oscillating Fields‘. Fanchon has produced both representational paintings - among which is the portrait of her husband to be displayed in the Royal Society (for Scientists) in London - and abstract expressionist paintings, etchings, and more recently ‘Collective Phenomena’. ’ Collective Phenomena’ is the name for a group of abstract artists painting collectively on the same surface, using the gestures of one then another as inspiration and results (in some cases) to a unusual counterpoint. Viewing 2-6pm, Monday to Saturday or by appointment. Exhibition runs until April 12. 2008. http://www.gallery4allarts.com/exhibitions.htm"(artinliverpool.com) Photographs above copyrighted to Nicole Bartos and Minako Jackson See Fanchon Frohlich photo album with some selections from the opening and exhibiton.

Research Information: The Summer of Love was the summer of 1967, particularly in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco, where thousands of young people loosely and freely united for a new social experience. As a result, the hippie counterculture movement came into public awareness. The beginning of the Summer of Love has popularly been attributed to the Human Be-In at Golden Gate Park on January 14, 1967. The size of that event awakened mass media to the hippie counterculture that was blossoming in the Haight-Ashbury. The movement was fed by the counterculture's own media, particularly The San Francisco Oracle, whose pass-around readership topped a half-million at its peak that year. The grassroots street theater/activism of The Diggers also garnered media attention. College and high school students began streaming into the Haight on their spring break of 1967. City government leaders, determined to stop the influx of young people once schools let out for summer, brought added attention to the scene. An ongoing series of articles in local papers alerted national media to the hippies' growing momentum. That spring, Haight community leaders responded by forming the Council of the Summer of Love, giving the word-of-mouth event an official-sounding name John Phillips of The Mamas and the Papas took 20 minutes to write the following lyrics for the song "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)": If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair... If you're going to San Francisco, Summertime will be a love-in there". Scott McKenzie's recording of the song was released in May 1967. The song was designed originally to promote the June 1967 Monterey Pop Festival, the world's first major rock festival, which was attended by over 200,000 people. "San Francisco" became an instant hit (#4 in the U. S., #1 in the U.K.) and quickly transcended its original purpose. Album cover, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club BandThe evolution of The Beatles and their music also contributed to the global impact of the Summer of Love. The Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band was released on June 1, 1967, in Europe and two days later in the U.S. With its psychedelic influences, Indian instrumentals, vivid album cover and drug references, it encapsulated the very essence of the Summer of Love. The Beatles had moved beyond their "moptop" era, and on June 25, 1967, their song "All You Need Is Love" was heard around the world as part of the "Our World" radio broadcast, further emphasizing the countercultural ideals of love, freedom, and unity.

Exhibition organised by the artist and hosted by Editions Limited. Message/ Note: ‘Creative Thought’ and spontaneity of ‘Creative Force’ can be one of the most therapeutic ways through creativity and reflects the individual inner energy resources and inner space. Motto: “Do not be afraid of Energy release and create your space of action! “ In this case, rhythmical associations and abstract mannerism are put in a context of Freedom, treating the action background as an Ice-skating stage, where the artist performs with technicality, bringing forward “instant thoughts” and dispersing them with a desire for change, beauty and poetry.
