The Canon Gallery, Hayletts Gallery, Middlemarch Fine Art, Oriel Fine Art and Nicholas Holloway Fine Art are all standing at the event from June 13-18 at the Ballroom Arts Courtroom and Ballroom Gallery on Aldeburgh High Street.
They offer a mix of the 20th century British and Contemporary works with a particular emphasis on the art and artists of East Anglia.
Among the artists included are Edward Bawden, Elisabeth Frink, Victor Pasmore and John Piper. Prices start at £300.
Offered for £800 is this Michael Frith watercolour offered by Jeremy Green of Canon Gallery.
The event coincides with the 75th Aldeburgh Festival, launched in 1948 by Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears.
Anna Wakerley of Oriel Fine Art says that the event “picks up the concept of the old Aldeburgh Festival exhibitions that happened around the coterie of Benjamin Britten’s artist friends such as John Piper and Mary Potter. We endeavour to have a broad selection but certainly some of those names should feature as well as the much-loved Tessa Newcomb and Sargy Mann.”
