A review of the Robert Mangold exhibition currently on at the Pace Gallery, London. In which I have the luxurious experience of having the place to myself on a weekend morning. Slow Art On A Saturday Morning I continue to very much enjoy the experience of getting back into art in person via commercial galleries. […]
A review of the exhibitions now on at White Cube Bermondsey. Both Park Seo-Bo and Jessica Rankin bring a splash of colour and a slow approach to art which encourages mindful viewing. Compare And Contrast At White Cube Bermondsey We continue our exploration of London’s commercial galleries today with not one, but two artists. Both […]
A roundup of several London art galleries which have recently reopened. In which I see many artists, many works, and many ways of welcoming visitors back to gallery spaces as restrictions lift. Commercial Gallery Crawl: So. Much. Art. After the year we have had, it feels like such a luxury to be able to spend […]
A review of an exhibition of quilts at the Alison Jacques Gallery, from Gee’s Bend, Alabama. In which I am exposed to a new artistic community, and have a lot to think about in terms of the intersection of ‘art’ and ‘craft’. Commercial Galleries Are Open! And as you can probably guess, I started on […]
A review of Helaine Blumenfeld exhibition Looking Up, currently on view across the Canary Wharf Estate. Given the current scarcity of art on public display, I wish they had made more of the works. Exhibition Extended, But Only In Part Not so long after visiting Canary Wharf to see Connected by Light, I am back […]
An illustrated walk along the North Greenwich section of The Line. While the full art walk probably can’t be done at once under current guidelines, the section around the North Greenwich peninsula contains plenty of interest for a socially-distanced outing. London’s First Public Art Walk The Line describes itself on its website as London’s first […]
A review of the 9th season of Sculpture in the City. More of an assemblage of outdoor art than a real sculpture festival, but in the current situation it’s a good opportunity to get out and see some artworks. Sculpture in the City, Lockdown Style Sculpture in the City, like Canary Wharf’s Connected by Light […]
A review of the Southbank Centre’s socially distanced winter display of light-based art. Much smaller-scale than Canary Wharf’s offering, but perhaps more interesting for it. You Found Another Outdoor Light/Art Exhibition? Yes I did, thanks for noticing! Shortly after visiting Connected by Light at Canary Wharf, I noticed the Southbank Centre had undertaken something similar. […]
A review of Connected by Light at Canary Wharf. In which I am pleased to find some outdoor art to enjoy! One of the few cultural outlets available to Londoners in these cold winter months is this display of nine light artworks on the Canary Wharf estate. Connected By Light. An Art Installation I Can […]
A review of Tracey Emin / Edvard Munch: The Loneliness of the Soul at the Royal Academy. An interesting exhibition. £17 is a steep ask for three small rooms, especially when the RA’s social distancing wasn’t as good as previously. But given it looks like the entire in-person run will be less than two weeks, […]
