NEXT EXHIBITION – PETRA CORTRIGHT
We are delighted to announce that we will open Petra Cortright’s exhibition Rouge Vif d’Étampes on 24 October. Cortright is a notable member of what became known at the ‘Post Internet’ art movement of the mid-to-late 2000s. Her multifaceted artistic practice stems from creating and manipulating digital files, but although digitally conceived her artworks physically exist in many forms - printed onto archival surfaces, projected onto existing architecture, or mechanically carved from stone.
Petra Cortright’s exhibition Rouge Vif d’Étampes will be open for public viewing from 24 October to 21 November 2020.

EXHIBITION NOW OPEN: RY DAVID BRADLEY - STILL LIFE 2
The history of visual art has always had an anxious relationship with the truth that experience is fleeting. Still life painting and its attempts to freeze the precarious conditions of the time we live in, points towards a basic human impulse: we are motivated to record that we existed, and to communicate what that experience was like. In Still Life 2 we return to a state of stillness and reflection but one that is unavoidably filtered through the visual phrasing of our chaotic present.
Ry David Bradley's debut solo exhibition with the gallery remains open until 17 October 2020.

UPCOMING EXHIBITION - RY DAVID BRADLEY
In the same way that still life painting first emerged as a reactionary attempt to halt the decaying effects of time on beautiful matter, Bradley produces material images of the twenty-first century that similarly aspire to encourage pause and reflection. Freezing specific moments from the world we now fleetingly experience via the conduit of backlit displays, Bradley reproduces the vibrant colours of RGB images using a computerized process of large-scale tapestry weaving, itself a precursor to the modern computer.
Ry David Bradley's exhibition Still Life 2 will be open for public viewing from 28 August to 17 October 2020.
