TESTIMONIALS – ART EVENTS

“Mary Penley was invited by West London Audi to convert our Brentford showroom into an art gallery setting for the launch of the new Audi A5 Coupe. The brief was to complement and showcase the new vehicles as works of art and design engineering excellence, and to provide an enhanced showroom experience for our customers. The brief was met with originality, flair and professionalism from design to completion. All the work displayed in a variety of media was high quality and we were pleased with the result. We also received great feedback from our customers who enjoyed the display. We would certainly consider future collaborations. With thanks to Mary Penley and her team”

“Working with Mary Penley Fine Artists was not only a pleasure but a professional experience every step of the way. Having an exhibition was a fantastic way to enjoy the varied art forms displayed and quite inspiring to see how well art comes together within the environment of a City of London office building. The launch evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all and the display was sadly missed at the close. We would welcome future exhibitions.”

“This is the first time that Hammerson has provided a City venue as an exhibition space. Our long experience in hosting ‘Art at 100’ in Hammerson’s own headquarters building in Park Lane has led us to take the concept to our City office portfolio. In addition, 99 Bishopsgate is a multi-tenanted building, housing approximately 2,000 employees, which provides an immediate audience for the artists exhibiting. We are hoping that this will be the first of many opportunities we will be bringing to more of our tenants across our portfolio.”

Director and Head of Offices – Hammerson

“The exhibition by Mary Penley Fine Artists displayed a wide variety of paintings, textiles, metal art and ceramics. The reception was imaginative and well managed down to the rose petals and pink champagne, and the catering complimented the professional design and layout, which was superbly presented. Live music in the modern setting provided the perfect relaxed environment for the enjoyment of the evening, turning a modern foyer into the feeling of a contemporary gallery. I had the pleasure of opening the inaugural show, and the enjoyment of all visitors, together with the resulting sales made the show an outstanding success.”
