Andy Burgess – Modernism Revisited
Celebrating 20 Years of Architectural Painting with Cynthia Corbett Gallery
Join us at 67 York Street Gallery - 67A York St, London W1H 1QB
Sunday 29 June 2025: Finissage Brunch, 11am-1pm

Join us for a celebratory Finissage Brunch marking the closing weekend of Modernism Revisited, the landmark solo exhibition by acclaimed artist Andy Burgess — described by Tatler’s Annabel Sampson as “the next David Hockney.”

This vibrant exhibition honours two decades of Burgess’s bold exploration of modernist architecture through painting and collage. From luminous mid-century façades to richly layered urban abstractions, Modernism Revisited showcases Burgess’s signature blend of geometry, colour, and nostalgia.

Enjoy light refreshments as we toast the enduring legacy of 20th-century design and the remarkable career of an artist whose work continues to captivate collectors and critics worldwide.

Andy Burgess (b. 1969, London, UK) is a British-born artist internationally renowned for his vibrant depictions of modernist and mid-century architecture. He studied Politics and Philosophy at Leeds University, followed by Byam Shaw School of Art blending intellectual rigor with visual sophistication. Now based in Tucson, Arizona, Burgess has been represented by Cynthia Corbett Gallery since 2004.

His work is held in numerous prominent private and institutional collections, including those of Nobel Laureate Kazuo Ishiguro, actor Emma Thompson, the Tisch family (New York), and Beth Rudin DeWoody (Whitney Museum Board).

Significant commissions include Crossrail London, the Mandarin Oriental, and a major site-specific project at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, in collaboration with CW+.

His work has been exhibited extensively across the UK, Europe, and the USA; including a solo show at the Tucson Museum of Art titled Mid-Century Perspectives, which coincided with the launch of his book Modernist House Paintings: Andy Burgess.
