Register of Naïve Artists
The Rona Gallery, opened in Mayfair, London in 1985, is celebrated for its distinctive group of contemporary 20th British figurative painters all painting in a 'naive' style. These include Richard Adams, Simon Black, Alfred Daniels, Christopher Hall, Michael Kidd, David Kirk, Jill Leman, Martin Leman, Nicola Slattery and Louis Turpin. A director of the gallery since 1977, Stanley Harries has organised several exhibitions for the British Council, at venues that include the Barbican Gallery, London and the South Bank Centre.
The Rona Group of Artists is a 'collective' that evolved from a series of exhibitions which took place in the late 1970's and early 80'. More recently this group has become well known for its exhibitions, which in 2010 were held at the Langham Gallery in the Bloomsbury district of London.
RONA is an acronym for Register of Naïve Artists.
