Celia Paul @ Victoria Miro

The exhibition coincides with the publication of Celia Paul’s memoir, Self-Portrait, and the release of a documentary film about the artist by Jake Auerbach.

The exhibition, focuses on the two key tenets of her work: portraiture and landscape. Alongside a body of new paintings, curated by Hilton Als.  These works address the abiding themes of Paul’s art – memory and family, the gulf between outward appearance and inner life – while offering touchstones for wider thoughts about time, transience, spirituality and mortality.
