Description

The Guild of Motoring Artists (GMA) was established in 1986 as a group of professional and semi-professional artists, who shared a common interest in automotive art. Over the years it has attracted some of the best and diverse worldwide automotive artists through its selective membership, exhibiting around the UK with invitational exhibitions in the USA.

Our second exhibition at the Club features works from thirteen of our members in a variety of media and styles. You will find work from Bill Pack, Steve Goodwin, Ella Freire,  Anna-Louise Felstead, Jonny Ambrose, Jon Stevenson, Dave O’Brien, Richard Neergaard, Sean Wales, David Ginn, David Purvis, Brian Casey and Barry Hunter on display.

Richard Neergaard – GMA Chairman and with a clear vision for the future of the Guild.

Amazing, impactful art can stop an audience in its tracks – but there must be beauty, not just shock or a dramatic statement. It’s Richard’s goal to create this in his unique automotive art.

To achieve both curiosity and beauty for the audience, he integrates original pieces from famous race cars, exotics, and classic cars.  These pieces give meaning and a sense of history while the rest of the art provides an unusual framework.  Most are made with aluminium panels which are laser cut, CNC bent and anodised.  A high quality photo is then laminated, computer calculated and plotter cut to fit exactly on the panels and screwed into an acrylic gloss back panel.

Richard has works in the British Motor Museum, the Los Angeles Driving Museum, the Jaguar Heritage Trust museum, the Williams F1 museum, Alfa Romeo F1, McLaren F1 and Williams F1 headquarters and exhibited at the Royal Automobile Club in London, Salon Prive at Blenheim Palace and sold at Bonhams Aston Martin Classics auction.
