John McLean

Broadbent is proud to announce the addition of a new artist to the gallery, British abstract painter John McLean. McLean had his first solo exhibition in 1975 at the Talbot Rice Gallery in Edinburgh and has continued creating his vivid, lively and animated paintings since. We are very excited about representing McLean and look forward to his first solo show at Broadbent in April 2007.

From 28 April to 1 May, Broadbent participated in the Chicago Art Fair at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago for the first time. After a last minute venue change, the fair came together in record time and attracted a large number of visitors. We greatly enjoyed our first fair in the states and look forward to participating again next year.

John Henry

While in Chicago, we met up with the artist John Henry. Henry is an American sculptor born in 1943 who is known worldwide for his large-scale public sculptures. His works grace numerous important museum, corporate, public and private collections as well as the collections of many American cities and states. His works are also prominently exhibited in the public collections of various European and Asian municipalities. Angus Broadbent recently returned from a visit to his studio in Chattanooga, Tennessee where he was very impressed by Henry's team of workers and the fabrication process of these large-scale works. An exhibition of Henry's smaller sculpture is planned for June 2007 at Broadbent.
