About Us
David Hartley - curator and proprietor of Corner Gallery began his career within advertising when he joined Artists Manchester on Whitworth Street in 1963. From there he moved to Brunnings Advertising, a London/Manchester Agency.
In 1969 he started in the studios of Design Services located in the Rex buildings in Wilmslow until 1979 when he joined his father Norman in his sign business in Failsworth. It was here that David developed a studio designing & painting Pub pictorial swinging signs and other bespoke signage for Architects. The company ultimately employed eight full time artists plus 50 other employees, signwriters, painters, electricians, joiners and fixers all of whom were highly skilled men & women.
Now is the time David feels, to start a Studio Gallery. An ambition he has held for many years. In the Corner Gallery he will produce his own paintings and exhibit other well known Artists that David admires.
