“Bermuda, Yours & Mine” Art Exhibition To Open
Gallery One Seventeen at 117 Front Street will play host to the opening of artist Sheilagh Head’s latest show, entitled “Bermuda – Yours and Mine” on Thursday, November 10 from 5.30pm to 7.00pm.
A spokesperson said, “At the eastern end of Front Street, specifically at number 117, Gallery One Seventeen is metamorphosing into Bermuda’s newest local art gallery in Hamilton.”
“Previously known as the Windjammer III Gallery which was located upstairs at Bluck’s, the new location is ideal and the building has been adapted to house a modern art gallery.”
“The official opening will take place on Thursday, November 10 from 5.30 to 7.00 pm when well known Bermudian artist Sheilagh Head will be holding a solo show entitled Bermuda – Yours and Mine consisting of more than 30 new works.”
“The Gallery represents nearly 60 local artists and with more space than at recent previous locations, including the Fairmont Hamilton Princess, R. Danjou Anderson, the Gallery Owner and Manager, is looking forward to being able to showcase original artwork from all of the represented artists.
“You are cordially invited to join Gallery One Seventeen for the opening and to soothe your soul by viewing some Bermudian artwork.”

Sheilagh Head’s work is invariably a pleasure to see.
It looks like Sheilagh Head has another world class landscape exhibition. I am serious. I read Artist Magazine, International Artist Magazine and I have been to the Tate Britain, the British National Gallery and the Museum of Fine Art in Boston in the last year or 2 and Sheilagh Head ‘s work is in that class. Her colours have changed in the last couple of years but she has a very poetic use of colour and interpretation of the landscape. It is amazing that her work looks dynamic no matter what size it is. She has paintings of some new sites for her. Her familiar favourite locations are executed much like how Cezanne repainted Mont Sainte-Victoire. It is worth having one of these Sheilagh Head favourite locations if you are a serious collector of her work or Bermuda landscapes. The Gallery 117 has opened with a show that has set a very high standard to live up to. I wish Danjou success and Sheilagh Head success with her show. The parking is very easy in this new location so there is no excuse not drop by and carry a new painting back to your car.
