2025

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Jo Quigley masterfully captures the iconic view of the Manhattan Bridge framed by the red-brick buildings of DUMBO, Brooklyn, in this striking acrylic on canvas. This cityscape is a testament to contemporary realism, bringing the energy and structure of urban life to the forefront. The precision of the perspective draws the viewer into the scene, evoking the familiar sense of standing on Washington Street, gazing toward the bridge as soft morning light washes over the architecture. The colour palette is a harmonious blend of warm and cool tones, with earthy reds and beiges of the surrounding buildings contrasting beautifully against the crisp blue sky and the steel framework of the bridge. The interplay of light and shadow adds depth and dimension, creating a dynamic composition that feels both structured and inviting. The meticulously detailed vehicles and pedestrians subtly animate the street, enhancing the vibrancy of the piece. Signed and ready to display, this artwork is currently available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online. Whether as a nostalgic homage to New York or a sophisticated addition to an urban art collection, Washington St, New York is a timeless piece that captures the heart of the city with stunning realism and painterly finesse. Artist Biography: Jo Quigley graduated with a BA from Winchester School of Art and an MA in Applied Fine Art from Kingston University. Her confident and distinctive work quickly gained a growing reputation, making her pieces highly sought after. People in the urban environment provide endless fascination for Jo, and much of her work is composed from photographs taken during visits to London. She quietly observes people going about their daily lives, capturing subjects that appear completely natural and un-staged, as they are unaware of being seen. Jo prefers locations where people gather in crowds, resulting in paintings that are both intimate and intense. She aims for viewers to feel involved in the depicted scenes, perhaps even seeing themselves in the crowd. Jo's influences include Pissarro, Hopper, and Lowry, which is evident in her work's depth and observational quality. Her use of deep tray frames adds an elegant, contemporary look to her paintings. Jo is a prizewinning artist and has been shortlisted for several major awards, including BBC Wildlife Artist of the Year 2011, Surrey Artist of the Year 2011, and Artist and Illustrators Artist of the Year in 2013 and 2014.
