A survey of new work by Georgie Hopton, who treats her garden as a palette, growing abundant produce on the Upstate New York farm she shares with her husband, the painter Gary Hume. She uses the fruits of her labour to create extraordinary monoprints and collages. By disrupting the traditional notion of the still-life, she […]
Janice Kerbal is interested in how fights can both erupt and dissipate, unannounced, regardless of context or setting. For Fight (2018), a series of silkscreen posters, she choreographed an unarmed fight for a group of 12 individuals. Every action of the fight was recorded on life size sheets of paper using text.
On the face of it, Phyllida Barlow’s vibrant, large-scale sculptures are always at the point of tipping off an edge, becoming too heavy and unbalanced to stand freely, or overrunning the places she builds them in. But this is all a brilliant illusion. This spring, Barlow is creating entirely new, site-specific work in our day-lit Gabrielle […]
Juliette Paull’s most recent body of work, Profile & Paintings, explores a continuously unfolding visual connection to the landscape within Baroque painting. The notion of romanticism and the sublime is of particular significance in the 18th century frescoes by Tiepolo. Drawing inspiration from these has opened up a personal dialogue with the historical aesthetic and with […]
Julia Patience uses watercolour and inks on paper, which enables her to paint fine detail, while being botanically correct. She aims to inspire rather than merely inform.
This exhibition, Interval, showcases a collection of oil paintings depicting the Suffolk Coast, by Rachel Arif. Her semi-abstract works are almost Turner-esque in style – reflecting the dramatic and changeable landscape of heaths, marshes and the North Sea, while perfectly capturing the unique Suffolk light. For this exhibition, Rachel created paintings on a larger scale than previously shown […]
Eileen Cooper has had an illustrious career and is well known for her strong, bold and passionate figuration as a painter and printmaker. She was the first woman to have been elected as Keeper of the Royal Academy of the Arts, London (2010-2017) and to have held this post since the Academy’s foundation in 1768. […]
The elegant Art Deco design of this gallery inspires six major new paintings by Tess Jaray, RA. One of Britain’s most distinguished and influential painters and printmakers, Jaray works in the abstract tradition, and her contemplations on form and colour have been inspired by architecture for more than 50 years. These meditative yet monumental canvases – […]
This is the first large-scale exhibition of Dorothea Tanning’s work for 25 years. It brings together 100 works from her seven-decade career – from enigmatic paintings to uncanny sculptures. Tanning wanted to depict ‘unknown but knowable states’: to suggest there was more to life than meets the eye. She first encountered Surrealism in New York in the […]
Protest and Remembrance brings together four artists, Miriam de Búrca, Joy Gerrard, Mary Griffiths and Barbara Walker, who use drawing to examine elements of protest and/or remembrance through a range of subjects that include war, political demonstration, burial sites and lost industry, set in both the urban and the rural, past and present. Miriam de Búrca focuses […]
Elsewhere features new works by Etel Adnan in the artist's first solo exhibition of prints in a London gallery. Acclaimed throughout her life for her writing, particularly her poetry, it was not until her inclusion in Documenta 13 in Germany in 2012 that she came to prominence as a visual artist. More recently, Adnan has incorporated printmaking into […]
The exhibition consists of twenty large-scale photogravures from three of Cornelia Parker's experimental series Fox Talbot’s Articles of Glass (2017); One Day This Glass Will Break (2015) and Thirty Pieces of Silver (exposed) (2015). These three series explore the artist’s fascination with the physical properties of objects, materials and their histories.
Neighbours, is the first solo UK exhibition by Myfanwy MacLeod, who is best known for her irreverent artworks that often explore the overlap between pop culture, folklore, traditions and histories. Her practice examines how perceptions of “high” and “low” culture are interpreted through themes of gender, privilege and value, and ranges from gallery exhibitions through […]
'Form, Feminisms, Femininities' is Rose English's first solo exhibition, which shines light on two moments from the early stages of the artist's career, beginning with her experimentation with emergent processes and materials as a young artist in the early 1970s and culminating with a focus on her 1983 performance Plato's Chair, a work that marked an […]
Taking mundane, prefabricated materials such as cardboard, cloth or plastic as her starting point, Vera Boele-Keimer transforms shapes and surfaces by taking these materials through semi-systematic, simple processes such as folding, binding, cutting or coating. The resulting works show the traces of their making openly – often playful attempts to stabilise or mend the newly […]
As a professional painter, Jennifer Suellen Rye has exhibited her paintings at a number of venues in the UK and abroad. This exhibition is called Beyond the Clouds: Cosmos series.
In Nancy Delouis’s paintings and pastels we are freed from busyness, noise, bluster and bad weather. Instead, we enjoy the peaceful view from a sun-drenched garden somewhere in France, or a marketplace in Africa, or vases filled with spring flowers, or the intimate moment of a woman sleeping, or a few girl friends relaxing.
Wunderblock, Emma Smith’s artworks and interventions interrogate some of this complex narrative to highlight the hidden history of the child’s influence over the adult world.
The arrangement of objects, sculpture, and images into immersive installation has become a constant for Anthea Hamilton, whose work frequently mines heterogeneous image sources; this includes The Prude. For the prude, modesty becomes extreme. The prude will not permit themselves, or others, sensuous enjoyment in life. Hamilton's interest in the literary figure of "the prude" in […]
Working primarily with photography and performance, Jessa Fairbrother’s interest is in an inner, emotional landscape and her practice utilises the external body as a site for artist enquiry and self-expression. This most often takes the form of highly individualised photographic self-portraits of her naked body, painstakingly embellished with minuscule needle perforations or hand embroidered so that […]
