The Lowry Connection

Garner International’s corporate identity features figures from the paintings of English artist L S Lowry. Lowry’s work epitomises ‘working Britain’ and captures life in the urban landscapes of Northern England. This is achieved with charm, wit and gritty realism. Andrew Garner, founder and Chairman of Garner International, grew up near the areas depicted by Lowry, and so has a strong affinity with his work. On our site, the Lowry characters are being used in a completely new context, one which parallels candidates’ moves from one work environment or opportunity to another.

The use of Lowry’s figures in this business context has created a distinctive corporate identity for Garner, which is fresh and unique in the world of executive search.
