Lost & Found
2-14 May 2017
Ten artists have explored the ideas of ‘Lost’ and ‘Found’ over the last year through painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, and interactive installations. The artists are: Graham Asker, Julie Caves, Esperanza Gomez-Carrera, Nick Hazzard, Martin Howard, Ruth Kathryn Jones, Peter Lang, Chris Mercier, Matt Smith, and Liz Whiteman Smith. Most of the artists have shown together before in the highly acclaimed exhibitions ‘Artists in Wonderland’ and ‘Quantum: A Journey Through the Standard Model”, both at Espacio Gallery. Though structured around a universal concept, each of the artists has approached the idea from a very different perspective and this broad range of responses has resulted in a thought-provoking, engaging exhibition.
Graham Asker, Julie Caves, Esperanza Gómez-Carrera, Nick Hazzard, Martin Howard, Ruth Jones, Peter Lang, Chris Mercier, Matt Smith, Liz Whiteman Smith. Curated by Liz Whiteman Smith. Private View: Thursday 4 May 6-9pm. Part of Whitechapel Gallery’s First Thursdays.
