The 'Thames Group Of Artists', is a collective of twenty working artists all with a personal and direct connection to the River Thames.

The Group have a new project underway, a planned exhibition in 2020 entitled 'ALL KINDS OF NAUGHTY' all work included will be inspired by the songs and lyrics of the great Ian Dury. .  

Dean has recently joined this group and will collaborate with Ciaran O'Shea aka Discordo on a piece for the exhibition. The pair have often joined forces on projects in the past, one notable recent show being 'Reverberation'.

With the blessing of Ian Dury's wife Sophy and children, Jemima and Baxter, theThames Group Of Artists are putting together a vital show celebrating the work of Ian Dury.

The 27th March 2020 will mark the twentieth anniversary of Ian’s untimely death from cancer, it will also be the opening night of the exhibition at The Stash Gallery Aldgate. Once the exhibition's run is complete at the Stash Gallery it will move to the Jonathan Ross's Gallery 286 Earls Court then onto The Cadiz Gallery in Greenwich, the Lilford Gallery Canterbury and then the Beecroft Gallery Southend where it will also feature as part of the 2020 Estuary Festival of art, music, literature and film.

There are also other Galleries interested in presenting the exhibition so news may follow on that nearer the time.
