Celebrated Yorkshire artist Pete McKee’s latest exhibition opens in his beloved Sheffield today, with thousands of people expected to visit it over the course of a two-week run as it takes place at Trafalgar Warehouse in the city centre. McKee’s latest exhibition Frank & Joy – A Love Story has plenty of personal resonance for him. It is a decade since he created a giant mural of an elderly couple locked in a passionate embrace on the outside of Fagan’s pub in Sheffield city centre.
It was in the mid-2000s that Jane encouraged McKee to give up his job at Tesco and make the leap into becoming a professional artist. He has gone onto work with musicians including Noel Gallagher, Arctic Monkeys and Richard Hawley. Gallagher recently named his latest album Council Skies after the title of a McKee book.
