Gone are the days when \u2018isms\u2019 gave us useful labels by which to identify an art movement as defined by a group of artists. Instead current painters borrow, beg and steal from every imaginable source in service to the art to which they are devoted. Alongside this, each artist, painter or not, engages in an ongoing dialogue with her or his peers, of which there is a vast pool both historically as well as currently. This dialogue takes place in as many ways as there are of approaching the making of art, from direct copying to responses alongside or in opposition to someone\u2019s work. In any case, the very nature of painting is one of putting in the hours in whatever serves as a studio, a hermit-like pursuit in front of a flat surface. Each painting produced with this intention, is itself a strong statement that adds to the mix and then seeds others in turn.<\/p>\n<p>With this in mind, the theme of this exhibition is works that the artist feels are something new or different with their own practice over the year. These are not necessarily \u2018finished\u2019 as such, but instead provide stimulus to a discussion as to what has happened over the last twelve months. As such, they might be sketches, drawings or indeed completed canvases.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Artists:<br \/>\nIain Andrews, Amanda Ansell, Louis Appleby, Richard Baker, Karl Bielik, Day Bowman, Marco Cal\u00ed, Ruth Calland, Lucy Cox, Pen Dalton, Natalie Dowse, Fiona Eastwood, Pippa Gatty, Susan Gunn, Susie Hamilton, Alex Hanna, Marguerite Horner, Barbara Howey, Phil Illingworth, Matthew Krishanu, Bryan Lavelle, Andrew Litten, Cathy Lomax, Paula MacArthur, Enzo Marra, Keith Murdoch, Cara Nahaul, Paul Newman, Gideon Pain, Ruth Philo, Barbara Peirson, Narbi Price, Freya Purdue, Katherine Russell, Wendy Saunders, Stephen Snoddy, David Sullivan, Harvey Taylor, Ehryn Torrell, Fionn Wilson, Sean Williams.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Crypt<\/a><br \/>\nSt Marylebone Parish Church,<br \/>\n17 Marylebone Road,<br \/>\nLondon,<br \/>\nNW1 5LT<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Small is Beautiful<\/h5>\n<p>14 December 2017 &#8211; 6 January 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1382251\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1382251\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1382251\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017.jpg\" alt=\"Scarlett Hooft Graafland, Haystacks, 2017\" width=\"1000\" height=\"817\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017-300x245.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017-768x627.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017-620x507.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Scarlett-Hooft-Graafland-Haystacks-2017-940x768.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1382251\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scarlett Hooft Graafland, Haystacks, 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Flowers Gallery exhibits contemporary art work in any medium that measures 7&#215;9 inches or smaller.

She is a renowned British painter, who established her reputation with large-scale landscapes painted in household gloss and enamel on aluminium. Recently, the artist has moved into figurative painting. The works, which are frequently vast in scale, were inspired by found photographic imagery the artist collects.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;These images often depict people at their most vulnerable, including in situations of conflict and confinement. Reinterpreted in oil paint using long, curved brushstrokes and sensuous colour, Clare Woods has created paintings which contain an intrinsic tension between reality and abstraction, beauty and its troubling undercurrent of ever-present danger.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.warwickartscentre.co.uk\/whats-on\/2018\/clare-woods\/\"target\"_blank\">Mead Gallery<\/a><br \/>\nWarwick Arts Centre,<br \/>\nUniversity of Warwick,<br \/>\nCoventry, CV4 7AL<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Paulina Pluta &#8211; Paintings and Drawings.<\/h5>\n<p>4 January 2018 \u2013 24 January 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1382472\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1382472\" style=\"width: 699px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Paulina-Pluta-Roman-bottle-Oil-on-panel-Framed-in-brown-wood.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Paulina-Pluta-Roman-bottle-Oil-on-panel-Framed-in-brown-wood.jpg\" alt=\"Paulina Pluta, Roman bottle, Oil on panel, Framed in brown wood\" width=\"699\" height=\"800\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1382472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Paulina-Pluta-Roman-bottle-Oil-on-panel-Framed-in-brown-wood.jpg 699w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Paulina-Pluta-Roman-bottle-Oil-on-panel-Framed-in-brown-wood-262x300.jpg 262w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Paulina-Pluta-Roman-bottle-Oil-on-panel-Framed-in-brown-wood-620x710.jpg 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 699px) 100vw, 699px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1382472\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paulina Pluta, Roman bottle, Oil on panel, Framed in brown wood<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Paulina is a realist painter from London.

Chen Li (b. 1971, Kunming) uses a rare woodblock reduction technique perfected in Yunnan. He prints all colours from a single woodblock, using thick oil-based colours that result in a mesmerising textured surface.\u00a0Each step along this process destroys the previous one. Only a single edition can be printed and the process can never be repeated.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.katrinelevin.com\/exhibitions\/\"target\"_blank>Katrine Levin Gallery, Coningsby Gallery, <\/a><br \/>\nLondon,\u00a0<br \/>\nW1T 4RJ<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Face To Face<\/h5>\n<p>27 January \u2013 2 March 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1383766\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1383766\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"282\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1383766\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000-300x85.png 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000-768x217.png 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000-620x175.png 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Face-to-Face-Image_1000-940x265.png 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1383766\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Face to Face Press release image.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This exhibition is curated by Sasha Bowles and includes work by Mark Jackson, Sue Williams A&#8217;Court, Sasha Bowles, Wendy Saunders, Corinna Spencer.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019I have seen a face with a thousand countenances, and a face that was but a single countenance as if held in a mould\u2026\u2026..<br \/>\nI know faces, because I look through the fabric of my own eye weaves, and behold the reality beneath.\u2019\u2019 Kahlil Gibran<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lubomirov-angus-hughes.com\/Contact\"target\"_blank>ANGUS-HUGHES Gallery<\/a><br \/>\n26 Lower Clapton Rd<br \/>\n(at the junction of Urswick Rd)<br \/>\nLondon,<br \/>\nE5 0PD<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>The Pastel Society Annual Exhibition 2018<\/h5>\n<p>20 February &#8211; 3 March 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1383764\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1383764\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Holland-Street-Angela-A\u2019Court-PS-Soft-Pastel-71-x-67.5-cm-.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Holland-Street-Angela-A\u2019Court-PS-Soft-Pastel-71-x-67.5-cm-.jpg\" alt=\"Holland Street, Angela A\u2019Court PS, Soft Pastel, 71 x 67.5 cm\" width=\"620\" height=\"455\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1383764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Holland-Street-Angela-A\u2019Court-PS-Soft-Pastel-71-x-67.5-cm-.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Holland-Street-Angela-A\u2019Court-PS-Soft-Pastel-71-x-67.5-cm--300x220.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1383764\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Holland Street, Angela A\u2019Court PS, Soft Pastel, 71 x 67.5 cm<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Including works made with pastel, pencil, chalk and charcoal, The Pastel Society exhibits a range of thematic work.

Comprising four interrelated series of works, the exhibition is conceived as a narrative display of Manasseh\u2019s artistic and spiritual journey over a year of intense creative productivity.<\/p>\n<p>With a focus on process, intended both as the physical practice of building an artwork and the artist\u2019s labour of self-discovery, Locating One Self guides the visitors through a transcendental journey of shifting perspectives.<\/p>\n<p>Earthy, layered paintings incorporating natural materials such as hessian and clay, the artworks on the lower floor are firmly grounded in the physical realm. Titled The Heart of the Matter, this series is a practical exploration of materials, but also a philosophical search for point(s) of origin, the crux \u201cwhere two opposing forces cross and meet, providing a completely new and unique perspective. Centred on the heart of the matter we can explore our relationship to ourselves and the world around us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moving up to the ground floor, the works gradually lose their earthbound qualities \u2013 natural pigment, black paint and woven material slowly give way to thin layers of white paper and clean, graphic marks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe drawings illustrate a universe of moving points, forming pathways that stop, pass each other, cross or meet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shifting focus from the ground to the stars, the works in the Mapping Infinity series take the artist\u2019s exploration of our relationships to the metaphysical realm, attempting to capture fleeting snapshots of a universe in constant flux: \u201cmultidimensional, multi-directional, we can move between or create new constellations\u2026 The possibilities are endless.\u201d  Looking back onto the world from a higher viewpoint, Manasseh achieves a complete shift in perspective in Between Here and There. \u201cRealising that the actual process of building the maps is integral to the information received from them,\u201d explains Manasseh, these maps can help us to see ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>The journey of Locating One Self finds its conclusion in a final act of synthesised unity: inscribing the maps within layers of clay, hessian, fibres, acrylic and oil paint, Manasseh creates powerful textural black and gold paintings in which all perspectives finally meet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is only by diving into the depths, into the darkness, that we can discover One Self. A timeless presence, an anchor in this ever-changing world. A place where we all meet, where differences fall away and we unite in harmony.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/galleryelenashchukina.com\/exhibitions\/\"target\"_blank>Gallery Elena Shchukina<\/a><br \/>\n10 Lees Place<br \/>\nMayfair, London<br \/>\nW1K 6LL<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Daily Rites<\/h5>\n<p>Private view: 1 March 2018<br \/>\n2 March 2018 &#8211; 18 March 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1383757\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1383757\" style=\"width: 4000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry.jpg\" alt=\"Coupling (A Good Book), Daily Rites, Edition A \/ 5 Colour Screenprint, Tom Berry\" width=\"4000\" height=\"2981\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1383757\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry.jpg 4000w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry-768x572.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry-1024x763.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry-620x462.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/coupling_a_tom_berry-940x701.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4000px) 100vw, 4000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1383757\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Coupling (A Good Book), Daily Rites, Edition A \/ 5 Colour Screenprint, Tom Berry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This exhibition of Tom Berry&#8217;s work includes paintings and screen prints that explore ordinary, daily activities that become imbued with a symbolic power through repetition. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Daily Rites is an ongoing set of images which explore the impulses hidden beneath modern, commonplace activities.

It examines classical presences in the works of twentieth-century artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henry Moore and Yves Klein, and leading contemporary artists including Damien Hirst, Alex Israel, Louise Lawler, Grayson Perry, Marc Quinn and Rachel Whiteread. The show explores the myriad continuities and contrasts between the ancient, modern and contemporary, revealing the \u2018classical\u2019 as a living and fluid tradition.<\/p>\n<p>The Classical Now is staged across two spaces at King\u2019s College London, the Inigo Rooms in the East Wing of Somerset House, and the Arcade at Bush House \u2013 part of The King\u2019s Cultural Quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibited works range from classical Greek and Roman artefacts (in bronze, marble and mosaic) to contemporary painting, sculpture, video and photography. The exhibition will feature contemporary works in which classical forms receive provocative new expression \u2013 such as the fragmentary bodies by contemporary artist Marc Quinn \u2013 alongside more oblique or suggestive uses of ancient themes, such as Bruce Nauman\u2019s landmark video performance, Walk with Contrapposto (1968). Paris-based artist L\u00e9o Caillard, known for dressing classical statues in contemporary attire, has been commissioned to produce a new site-specific installation for the exhibition.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside ancient Greek and Roman objects, The Classical Now exhibits work by Edward Allington, Pablo Bronstein, L\u00e9o Caillard, Jean Cocteau, Michael Craig-Martin, Andr\u00e9 Derain, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Damien Hirst, Alex Israel, Derek Jarman, Yves Klein, Louise Lawler, Christopher Le Brun, Roy Lichtenstein, George Henry Longly, Ursula Mayer, Henry Moore, Bruce Nauman, Christodoulos Panayiotou, Giulio Paolini, Grayson Perry, Frances Picabia, Pablo Picasso, Marc Quinn, Mary Reid Kelley &amp; Patrick Kelley, Sacha Sosno, Mark Wallinger and Rachel Whiteread. The show will also incorporate the video-installation, \u2018Liquid Antiquity: Conversations\u2019, featuring interviews with six contemporary artists (Matthew Barney, Paul Chan, Urs Fischer, Jeff Koons, Asad Raza and Kaari Upson) \u2013 commissioned by the DESTE Foundation for Contemporary Art, and designed by Diller, Scofidio + Renfro.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kcl.ac.uk\/Cultural\/-\/Projects\/The-Classical-Now.aspx\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Inigo Rooms<\/a><br \/>\nSomerset House East Wing,<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nWC2R 2LS<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Sol LeWitt: Colour<\/h5>\n<p>14 February \u2013 17 March 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1383880\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1383880\" style=\"width: 588px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Sol-LeWitt-Concentric-Irregular-Black-and-White-Bands-1994-Oil-based-woodcut-on-Tosa-Misumi-paper-Paper-32.5-x-48.0-cm-Image-29.2-x-43.5-cm-Edition-of-100-Signed-and-numbered-lower-right.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1383880\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Sol-LeWitt-Concentric-Irregular-Black-and-White-Bands-1994-Oil-based-woodcut-on-Tosa-Misumi-paper-Paper-32.5-x-48.0-cm-Image-29.2-x-43.5-cm-Edition-of-100-Signed-and-numbered-lower-right.jpg\" alt=\"Sol LeWitt Concentric Irregular Black and White Bands 1994 Oil-based woodcut on Tosa-Misumi paper Paper 32.5 x 48.0 cm : Image 29.2 x 43.5 cm Edition of 100 Signed and numbered lower right\" width=\"588\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Sol-LeWitt-Concentric-Irregular-Black-and-White-Bands-1994-Oil-based-woodcut-on-Tosa-Misumi-paper-Paper-32.5-x-48.0-cm-Image-29.2-x-43.5-cm-Edition-of-100-Signed-and-numbered-lower-right.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Sol-LeWitt-Concentric-Irregular-Black-and-White-Bands-1994-Oil-based-woodcut-on-Tosa-Misumi-paper-Paper-32.5-x-48.0-cm-Image-29.2-x-43.5-cm-Edition-of-100-Signed-and-numbered-lower-right-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Sol-LeWitt-Concentric-Irregular-Black-and-White-Bands-1994-Oil-based-woodcut-on-Tosa-Misumi-paper-Paper-32.5-x-48.0-cm-Image-29.2-x-43.5-cm-Edition-of-100-Signed-and-numbered-lower-right-192x128.jpg 192w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1383880\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sol LeWitt Concentric Irregular Black and White Bands 1994 Oil-based woodcut on Tosa-Misumi paper Paper 32.5 x 48.0 cm : Image 29.2 x 43.5 cm Edition of 100 Signed and numbered lower right<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This is the first solo exhibition of Sol LeWitt\u2019s graphic works since his death over ten years ago.

Her work is heavily influenced by the urban environment of London. Her often very minimal and stripped back works are a response to the city and draw on key forms present in the city&#8217;s architecture and play with the urban colours of street signs. Her work presents her sense of detachment and disconnection from London.

The poem\u2019s impressive use of fictitious words and abstract imagery masterfully illustrates a scene of childhood fantasy, in which the monster lurking dangerously in the shadows is finally eliminated. While the narrative itself remains mysterious, the action of overcoming a great evil is undeniable. It is Carroll\u2019s creative reframing of threat and danger through his bewilderingly-named creatures that has elevated the poem to such acclaim.<\/p>\n<p>The show includes a myriad of contemporary messages about playing with fantasy in order to comprehend reality and to defeat menace. This encompasses two-dimensional and three-dimensional artworks (painting, photography, print, mixed media, installation), as well as video\/film and performance, all of which may be political, personal or as nonsensical as the poem itself.

But, on the upside it enables our audience to digest our stable in context. We are mostly a painter&#8217;s gallery, albeit with a curatorial emphasis that embraces every medium when appropriate. The artists we exhibit are technical, but this is nowhere near enough in itself. You will find that each one of them makes work with an intense emotional, philosophical or psychological charge, and so their work operates in a challenging, profound way.\u2028&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/charliesmithlondon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CHARLIE SMITH LONDON, <\/a><br \/>\n336 Old Street,<br \/>\nShoreditch,<br \/>\nLondon EC1V 9DR<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Width of Circle<\/h5>\n<p>22 March &#8211;

After immersion, the sodden canvases are pulled from the sea and laid out on the beach. Mineral pigments are thrown directly onto the sea beaten fabric; its folds and creases catching the grains of colour. The process is then repeated with the canvas returning to the sea or being left to dry on the beach. The sea, wind, and sand along with the pigment and the artist\u2019s hand create forms through the movement of colour. The place and date of making is given in each work\u2019s title, emphasizing the mirroring of location and time.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frithstreetgallery.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Frith Street Gallery<\/a><br \/>\nSoho Square, 60 Frith Street<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nW1D 3JJ<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>#pengtings<\/h5>\n<p>27 March &#8211; 1 April 2018<br \/>\nPrivate View: Thursday 29 March 6-9pm<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1384542\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1384542\" style=\"width: 746px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Victoria-Perloff-figures.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1384542\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Victoria-Perloff-figures.jpg\" alt=\"Victoria Perloff, figures March exhibitions\" width=\"746\" height=\"995\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Victoria-Perloff-figures.jpg 746w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Victoria-Perloff-figures-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Victoria-Perloff-figures-620x827.jpg 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 746px) 100vw, 746px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1384542\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Victoria Perloff, Figures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>#pengtings is an exhibition by a group of international female artists who are consciously choosing to confront how they present interpretations of the world and how they weave into this interpretation their own desire.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Social media has given us all carte blanche to reinvent ourselves as super-human, exaggerating how we look and artificially enhancing what we believe are our best features. The pressure surrounding body image is a real and growing issue and can occasionally manifest itself in anxiety and mental illness. There are numerous ways to define beauty and catching a moment to appreciate it can be a way to alleviate the stresses of life and escape into a world of imagination. This can be achieved with art that pushes the boundaries of what is real and can imitate itself within painting, drawing, and sculpture.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Exhibiting artists:<br \/>\nCaroline Lovett, Diana Sandetskaya, Jacqui Grant, Josette Aitman,<br \/>\nMichelle Karpus, Tania Askar, Victoria Perloff<\/p>\n<p>Curated by Jacqui Grant<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.espaciogallery.com\">Espacio Gallery<\/a><br \/>\n159 Bethnal Green Road<br \/>\nLondon E2 7DG<br \/>\n(Just off Brick Lane in East London)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Our Exhibition Calendar<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/artist-opportunities\/\">Please let us know about your exhibition.<\/a> We may be able to include it in future Current Events.<\/p>\n<p>See more exhibitions on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/artist-opportunities\/\">Artist Calendar.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>all images are copyright of the artist<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>The image at the top is: The Beast, 2017, Oil on Linen, 40x56cm by Dominic Shepherd, who is showing at Width of Circle.<\/h5>\n<p>&#8211;<br \/>\n&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Current Events #13.

Each of these women explore and interrogate the nature of poetry: through poetry itself or through novel writing, non-fiction writing, visual art, music or comedy. Many of them work across all of these artforms. They each take a radical approach to language and use it to the full extent of its power. They play with words, create incomparable images and tell stories that no one has heard before.<\/p>\n<p>All of these women have also inspired my own work as a writer and an artist. When I was growing up, I wasn\u2019t exposed to the wealth of work being created by female poets. I only knew the very few who were represented in my textbooks at school; I had to go in search of others myself. As I read more, I realised that the white male monopoly on poetry as an artform had required many women to work beyond the boundaries, and embed their poems in other artforms. I realised that every time I read a Toni Morrison novel or listened to Joni Mitchell or watched Victoria Wood\u2019s stand-up, I was hearing and absorbing poetry in a powerful and important way. This collection is a celebration of these women.\u2019 \u2014 Thom Kofoed<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/poetrysociety.org.uk\/poetry-cafe\/exhibitions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Poetry Society<\/a><br \/>\n22 Betterton Street<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nWC2H 9BX<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Ann Oram: New Paintings from the studio<\/h5>\n<p>7 March &#8211; 31 March 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1384738\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1384738\" style=\"width: 1400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm-.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1384738\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm-.jpg\" alt=\"Ann Oram, Midnight Still Life, Mixed Media, Watercolour paper, 67 x 78cm\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm-.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm--300x253.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm--768x647.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm--1024x862.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm--620x522.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Ann-Oram-Midnight-Still-Life-Mixed-Media-Watercolour-paper-67-x-78cm--940x792.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1384738\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ann Oram, Midnight Still Life, Mixed Media, Watercolour paper, 67 x 78cm<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Ann Oram\u2019s latest solo show at the Scottish Gallery focuses on architecture, still life and landscape.

It features the work of Hamish Pearch, Margaux Valengin, Markus Vater, Ana Milenkovic, Rafal Topolewski, Fiona Finnegan and Christopher Orr.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018This cosmopolitan group, at different stages in their careers, produce work that is profoundly Romantic in nature. This Romanticism is strongly reminiscent both of the pan- European sensibility most associated with artists and writers such as Gustave Moreau, Odilon Redon, Caspar David Friedrich, Charles Baudelaire, but also profoundly modern in its desire for intimacy, meaning and security in a socially fragmented world.<\/p>\n[\u2026]\n<p>Although the painting on show at Night Realms is predominantly figurative, it is also often dark and enigmatic, eluding clear definition. As such, it engages the darker, clandestine, side of the human psyche, where meanings are confused and space disorientating, vertiginous, dreamlike or hallucinatory.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/461958307552004\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Night Realms<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.arushagallery.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Arusha Gallery<\/a>,<br \/>\n13A Dundas St,<br \/>\nEdinburgh<br \/>\nEH3 6QG<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>\u201dWOMEN CAN&#8217;T PAINT\u2026\u201d<\/h5>\n<p>7th April &#8211; 12th May 2018<br \/>\nPrivate view\u00a0Friday 6th April\u00a06 &#8211; 9pm<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1384742\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1384742\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Press-image-for-22Women-Cant-Paint...-by-Geraldine-Swanye.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1384742\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Press-image-for-22Women-Cant-Paint...-by-Geraldine-Swanye.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Press-image-for-22Women-Cant-Paint...-by-Geraldine-Swanye.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Press-image-for-22Women-Cant-Paint...-by-Geraldine-Swanye-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1384742\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Press image for Women Can&#8217;t Paint&#8230;&#8217; by Geraldine Swanye<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Exhibiting artists include:<br \/>\nRoberta Booth \/ Jean Cooke \/ Stevie Dix \/ Jane Harris \/ Rosa Lee \/ Mali Morris \/ Hannah Murgatroyd \/ Cherry Pickles \/ Clare Price \/ Emma Roche \/ Geraldine Swayne \/ Josephine Wood \/ Rose Wylie<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.turpsgallery.co.uk\/\">Turps Gallery &amp; ASC Gallery<\/a><br \/>\nTaplow House, Thurlow Street<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nSE17 2UQ<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Tom Hammick: Lunar Voyage<\/h5>\n<p>16 March \u2013 5 May 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1384746\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1384746\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut-.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1384746\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut-.jpg\" alt=\"Tom Hammick, Nightfall,\u00a02017 - Reduction\u00a0woodcut\" width=\"1000\" height=\"725\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut-.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut--300x218.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut--768x557.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut--620x450.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Tom-Hammick-Nightfall-2017-Reduction-woodcut--940x682.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1384746\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom Hammick, Nightfall,\u00a02017 &#8211; Reduction\u00a0woodcut<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8216;British painter and printmaker Tom Hammick has described landscape in his work as a metaphor to explore an \u201cimaginary and mythological dreamscape.\u201d Drawing from a wide range of sources, from Japanese woodblock prints to Northern European Romantic painting, utopian Modernism and contemporary cinema, Hammick\u2019s depictions of isolated human dwellings grounded in uncanny dreamlike settings summon the uneasy atmosphere of a psychologically-charged thriller, or a dystopian suburban nightmare.<\/p>\n<p>In the present exhibition of woodcuts, shown in its entirety for the first time in the UK, Hammick conjures a metaphorical journey to outer space, weaving interstellar dreams and earthly relationships. A suite of seventeen images traces the cyclical path of his protagonist, an archetypal artist or poet, who leaves life on earth in pursuit of freedom and isolation on the moon &#8211; only to be haunted by memories of those he has left behind.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersgallery.com\/\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Flowers Gallery<\/a><br \/>\n21 Cork Street<br \/>\nLondon W1S 3LZ<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Our Exhibition Calendar<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/artist-opportunities\/\">Please let us know about your exhibition.<\/a> We may be able to include it in future Current Events.<\/p>\n<p>See more exhibitions on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/artist-opportunities\/\">Artist Calendar.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>all images are copyright of the artist<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>The image at the top is: Tom Hammick, Nightfall,\u00a02017 &#8211; Reduction\u00a0woodcut.<\/h5>\n<p>&#8211;<br \/>\n&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Current Events #14.

Working with the backdrops of early Renaissance masterpieces, as homage to Holbein, and fabricated using techniques of that time, the artist combines pigment properties and colour association, with symbolism and planetary attributes to identify not only the weight, speed and dynamism of each character, but also their associated personality traits. An eight-panel folding screen will create a 3-dimensional arena in which to engage with 2-dimemsional imagery through a bold reinterpretation of Holbein\u2019s\u00a0The Ambassador\u2019s.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.brocketgallery.com\/jack-bullen-1\/th7xkxapqlf4e0cm8g4n5uhqh3idnv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brocket London<\/a><br \/>\n16 Windmill Row,<br \/>\nLondon,<br \/>\nSE11 5DW<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>THE LAST DAY ON EARTH: 10 days\/10 exhibitions<\/h5>\n<p>7 &#8211; 15 April 2018,<br \/>\nPreview: Friday 6 April 6pm &#8211; 9pm<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1384872\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1384872\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Jay-Rechsteiner-Studio-in-Margate-UK-2017.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1384872\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Jay-Rechsteiner-Studio-in-Margate-UK-2017.jpg\" alt=\"Jay Rechsteiner, Studio in Margate, UK, 2017, exhibitions on in first week April\" width=\"900\" height=\"699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Jay-Rechsteiner-Studio-in-Margate-UK-2017.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Jay-Rechsteiner-Studio-in-Margate-UK-2017-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Jay-Rechsteiner-Studio-in-Margate-UK-2017-768x596.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Jay-Rechsteiner-Studio-in-Margate-UK-2017-620x482.jpg 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1384872\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jay Rechsteiner, Studio in Margate, UK, 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Last Day on Earth is a work-in-progress exhibition that changes or transmutes over the course of 10 days to form one new installation per day.<\/p>\n<p>Crate Project Space will be used as an exhibition studio-lab where Rechsteiner will be working within a clearly defined framework of themes and materials.

During the evening the artist and publisher (Invisible Print Studio) will have a discussion on the work chaired by art and culture critic Jonathan McAloon.<\/p>\n<p>Press release:<\/p>\n<p>Tne Picture Book of Ehrenfried of Entenbeurgh<\/p>\n<p>The Picture Book of Ehrenfried of Entenbeurgh has been produced as a hand-made volume of original artworks, printed alongside a number of carefully chosen texts. This hand made book references a wide variety of sources, from medieval incunabula (early examples of printed books) to German Expressionist artefacts such as Wassily Kandinsky\u2019s book, Kl\u00e4nge (Sounds) 1913. Kandinsky described Kl\u00e4nge as a &#8220;musical album.&#8221; The woodcuts, prose poems, and typography merge and complement one another in a symphonic synthesis. The Picture Book of Ehrenfried of Entenbeurgh uses the same romantic symphony of image and text, stitched together as an immersive journey.<\/p>\n<p>Using the traditional notion of the \u2018traveller\u2019, The Picture Book of Ehrenfried of Entenbeurgh tells the story of philosopher-vagrant, stumbling through the centuries in search of the essence of the European imaginative modus operandi. The artworks are produced in a process that is simple but unique to Pomichal\u2019s practice; being both painterly but with echoes of German Expressionist woodcuts. The imagery is created with Microsoft Paint, a simple raster graphics programme that is arguably the most widespread and accessible program of our time. It is something of a cultural artefact itself. The digitally produced artworks are then printed on archival matte paper, hardbound and published as a limited edition of 100.<\/p>\n<p>Pomichal says: \u201cThe book represents Ehrenfried\u2019s imaginary inner journey. This inner journey expands and contracts according to its own ahistorical logic, moving beyond time and phenomena and aspiring towards the ideal, synthetic form of, what I call, \u2018the Gothic impulse\u2019. This is laced with unreason, inter-connectedness, hypertension, anxiety, and feebleness of excess. The essence of \u2018the Gothic impulse\u2019 is schismatic and blasphemous, as well as anagogical and divine\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Miroslav Pomichal (1984, Bratislava) lives and works in London and Velka Lehota, Slovakia. He studied at the Courtauld Institute of Art (BA Art History) and Wimbledon School of Art, University of the Arts London (MFA Fine Art). His solo shows include Duino Elegies at Kun Kelemen Fine Arts (2017, Bratislava), Kaukazske Malovanky at Flatgallery (2016, Bratislava) and Living Like a God at CANAL (2016, London). He was selected for Saatchi New Sensations (2014) and Bloomberg New Contemporaries (2014-15) and exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Arts London, Newlyn Art Gallery Newlyn, Bosse &#038; Baum London, The Lightbox Museum and Gallery Woking, or World Museum Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Invisible Print Studio is a publisher and producer of original concepts in print. Launched in 2013 by Michael Hall and Coralie Sheppard it has published editions by Simon Patterson, Bruce McLean, Andrew Bick, Ray Richardson and many more established and early career artists. Their most recent project The Arca Project: An Exhibition Inspired by the Work of W.G.Sebald was their first full curatorial project in print and was presented by PayneShurvell Gallery in London and Suffolk.<\/p>\n<p>Please RSVP to michael@invisibleprintstudio.co.uk or info@griffingallery.co.uk<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/griffingallery.co.uk\/\">Griffin Gallery<\/a><br \/>\n21 Evesham Street<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nW11 4AJ<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Tangerine Trees and Marmalade Skies: Steve Capper<\/h5>\n<p>26th April &#8211; 12th May<br \/>\nPrivate view: Thursday 26th April 2018, &#8217;til\u00a08:30pm.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1385204\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1385204\" style=\"width: 550px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/The-Brow-Artist-Steve-Capper-Medium-acrylic-on-canvas-Height-20-Width-28-inches.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/The-Brow-Artist-Steve-Capper-Medium-acrylic-on-canvas-Height-20-Width-28-inches.jpg\" alt=\"Steve Capper, The Brow, acrylic on canvas, 20 x 28 inches, exhibitions end April\n\" width=\"550\" height=\"395\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1385204\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/The-Brow-Artist-Steve-Capper-Medium-acrylic-on-canvas-Height-20-Width-28-inches.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/The-Brow-Artist-Steve-Capper-Medium-acrylic-on-canvas-Height-20-Width-28-inches-300x215.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1385204\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Steve Capper, The Brow,  acrylic on canvas, 20 x 28 inches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>40 works by Steve Capper <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The show features pieces with Steve&#8217;s trademark use of kalaedescopic colour and his take on still life and the regional landscape.

The show focuses on the incredible tale of the deaf-mute Iranian farmer Darvish Esfandiarpour and his silent rebellion against the environmentally devastating land reforms of the Shah of Iran\u2019s regime in the 1960s. Over almost have a century, Esfandiarpour assembled heavy stones on dead trees, giving birth to the Stone Garden \u2013 a site of both devastation and rebirth, and invigorating ceremonial dances.<\/p>\n<p>Mainly consisting of oil paintings and charcoal drawings the show itself investigates the notion of boundaries, space and movement.<\/p>\n<p>On the Thursday 19th April, Fakhr will be joined by the British dancer Akram Khan\u00a0top hold a discussion on the themes of the show and go on to hold a silent disco in celebration of The Stone Garden. Movement is a key practice of Fakhr\u2019s work since he sees his studio as a cosmic gym.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/asiahouse.org\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Asia House<\/a><br \/>\n63 New Cavendish St<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nEngland<br \/>\nW1G 7LP<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Arthur Lanyon: White Chalk Lines<\/h5>\n<p>30 March &#8211; 5 May 2018<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1385234\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1385234\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Arthur-Lanyon-Black-Collar-oil-acrylic-gold-gesso-spray-paint-charcoal-on-linen-170-x-190-cm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Arthur-Lanyon-Black-Collar-oil-acrylic-gold-gesso-spray-paint-charcoal-on-linen-170-x-190-cm.jpg\" alt=\"Arthur Lanyon, Black Collar, oil, acrylic, gold gesso, spray paint, charcoal on linen, 170 x 190 cm, exhibitions end April\n\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1385234\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1385234\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arthur Lanyon, Black Collar, oil, acrylic, gold gesso, spray paint, charcoal on linen, 170 x 190 cm<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhere Do We Come From,\u2028\u00a0What Are We,\u2028\u00a0Where Are We Going\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This solo exhibition of Arthur Lanyon\u2019s multi-media and multi-scale paintings demonstrate ad intense two year period of creativity and development.

Beginning by making repetitive line drawings, and then repeating the process when making the paintings themselves, Bennett relentlessly seeks to hone her line and form in order to arrive at an essence. This distillation replicates the process of depiction to abstraction that was so well refined by early 20th century Modernism, which in turn referenced perceived notions about early non-Western art.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe work usually turns into conversations with other paintings by other painters. Painting for me is ultimately about creating structures within which I can try to paint in all the ways I want to and establish an ongoing dialogue with the history of art; the behemoth of art history to the present.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This relationship is affirmative and autobiographical. Whether presenting us with a first or third person view, and therefore inviting us to at times be acting within the scene, and at other times to be observing the scene, there are always references to Bennett\u2019s personal thoughts, feelings and experiences during making work: urgency; futility; meaning; humour; repetition; trance; mania; insomnia; obsession. Ultimately the painted plane becomes a threshold through which the artist and audience might access the history of mark making; shift identities; and touch upon the escapism, nostalgia and delusion that accompanies making paintings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/charliesmithlondon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Charlie Smith London<\/a><br \/>\n336 Old St, 2nd Floor,<br \/>\nShoreditch,<br \/>\nLondon EC1V 9DR<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Claire Nichols: BAM-BOO<\/h5>\n<p>Private view: Thursday 26 April 2018 6-9pm<br \/>\n26 April &#8211; 29 April 2018<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1385480 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683.jpg\" alt=\"exhibitions end April\" width=\"1080\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683-768x378.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683-1024x503.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683-620x305.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/DbO9VNxWsAIcVBI-e1524473582683-940x462.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>ArtWorks Open 2017 Prizewinner selected by Florence Peake and Tai Shani.<\/p>\n<p>BAM-BOO is a solo show by Claire Nichols at the ArtWorks Project Space, Barbican Arts Group Trust (BAGT). The exhibition brings together new tactile and geometric compositions using existing materials gathered from the area surrounding the BAGT and accumulated over time from different studios and artist residencies.<\/p>\n<p>Treating the relations between these found objects more like aspects of an organism than an installation, this body of work materialises a process that has no clear ending. Nichols is interested in improvisation and movement, and each composition she creates is balanced and temporary; open to new configurations. Each day of the exhibition the viewer will witness a new iteration, as the organism shifts, collapses and renews. In this way, Nichols blurs the line between studio and gallery and proposes that the gallery becomes a site of interrogation with regards to the creative process, both for the artist and the viewer.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibitions and performances include arebyte, London; Enclave Lab, London; David Roberts Art Foundation, London; Art on the Underground, London; FormContent, London; Centre Cultural la Merc\u00e8, Girona; TwoHotel, Bahia; and Despina, Rio de Janeiro. Nichols was artist in residence at the Florence Trust between 2016-17 and her work is included in the Chelsea Special Collections and Goldsmiths Women\u2019s Art Library.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.barbicanartsgrouptrust.co.uk\/exhibitions---artworks-project-space-at-blackhorse-lane1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ArtWorks Project Space<\/a><br \/>\n114 Blackhorse Lane,<br \/>\nE17 6AA<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>A CAROMING<\/h5>\n<p>26 April &#8211; 5 May 2018<br \/>\nPrivate View: 6-8pm Wednesday 25 April 2018<br \/>\nOn view: 1 \u2013 6pm 26 April \u2013 5 May 2018<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Caroming-768x545.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1385478 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Caroming-768x545.png\" alt=\"exhibitions end April\" width=\"768\" height=\"545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Caroming-768x545.png 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Caroming-768x545-300x213.png 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Caroming-768x545-620x440.png 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Caroming-768x545-100x70.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2018The incident\u2019 might be thought one of the fundamentals of drawing \u2013 in the form of the mark, the point, the change.
