Chester Visual Arts (CVA) has now unveiled 'ReMark', a modern art exhibition which saw 950 visitors in its opening weekend.

It features four acclaimed Northwest artists: Terry Duffy, Julie Saul, Julie Mayer and Anne Byrne.

The exhibition runs until 7 March 2025, at the CVA Exhibition Space in the Grosvenor Centre, Chester.

ReMark presents a diverse exploration of abstract art, encompassing both expressionist and geometric styles.

Visitors are invited to engage with the artworks through a 'Mark-Making area', encouraging personal creative expression inspired by the exhibition.

Alistair Tucker, chair of the board at Chester Visual Arts, said: "Chester Visual Arts aims to provide a space in Chester for contemporary art, serving both artists and the public.
