The Gallery

The Gallery at Langdon Hall is delighted to present its spring and summer 2024 exhibition titled "From Above".  Included with this beautiful, innovative, abstract painting exhibition is the official launch of the artist's 200+ page coffee table book of the same name.

Toronto based artist Steve Fretwell drew his creative inspiration for his "From Above" collection from the hopes and memories of the brave men and women, of the allied air services, who participated in the liberation of Europe.

Using aerial reconnaissance images as the launching pad for his work, Fretwell brings a fresh, modern perspective to the abstract landscape style. His paintings are a bright, bold and powerful tribute to a soon to be lost generation.

Strongly influenced by the Colour Field Art movement of the 1940's, this collection expertly mixes history, paint and storytelling in a way that challenges the viewer to consider questions about courage, duty and honor.
