Peter Prendergast (1946 - 2007)
Welsh artist Peter Prendergast was one of Britain’s foremost landscape painters. Inspired by the surroundings of his Snowdonia home, his bold expressionist paintings are noted for their vigour and energy.
Peter was born in Abertridwr, South Wales in 1946, but lived and worked in North Wales for many years up to his death in 2007. Trained at the Slade School of Fine Art, where he was taught by Frank Auerbach, and Cardiff College of Art, he exhibited widely in Britain and abroad, with increasing success. His work is included in many private and public collections including the Tate Gallery, the National Museum of Wales, Stadts Galerie, Stuttgart, the British Museum and the Arts Council collection.

Peter Prendergast oedd un o artistiaid tirwedd blaenaf ym Mhrydain. Wedi eu hysbrydoli gan dirwedd Eryri ble bu'n byw, mae ei luniau mynegianol beiddgar yn nodweddiadol am eu grym ac egni.
Fe’i ganwyd yn Abertridwr, De Cymru ym 1946 ac fe’i hyfforddwyd yn Ysgol Gelf Slade, o dan yr athro Frank Auerbach. Mae ei waith wedi’i arddangos yn eang ym Mhrydain a thramor ac i’w weld mewn sawl casgliad preifat a chyhoeddus gan gynnwys Oriel Tate, Amgueddfa Genedlaethol Cymru, Stadts Galerie, Stuttgart, yr Amgueddfa Brydeinig a Chasgliad Cyngor y Celfyddydau.
