Artist[edit]

Exhibitions[edit]

In 2020, Tangye's paintings were exhibited at The Armoury Show (art fair), Whitewall Magazine said of Tangye's exhibition[10]:

"Tucked away in Pier 90, we were captivated by ​Howard Tangye​’s whimsical paintings presented by London-based ​State​.​ Employing only the naked line and pale shocks of color, ​Tangye’s portraits are a study of the body at rest. Each painting’s sketchy, elusive form emits a quiet yet unmistakably sensual energy. They exist at a moment of hesitation that, like holding your breath, makes it feel easy to lose yourself."[10]

In 2017, Tangye held an exhibition titled LINKS at The Amar Gallery in London.[11][3][12] In 2022, his work was exhibited and he did a talk at the Design Museum, London for their 'Drawing Fashion' collection.[13]
