Back to Vegas, and I visited Bellagio Art Gallery for the first time where Afrosurrealist artivist Vince Fraser was fusing the mystical with reality in exhibition ‘Ase: Afro Frequencies’
On the way to the Bellagio Art Gallery, I spotted an awesome artwork by Team Lab
Then I headed to The Neon Museum and was delighted, once again, by the many different aspects of Neon that can be seen there. My favourite was of course the traditional, historical pieces
At Stephen Friedman Gallery was an impressive show by Holly Hendry
My favourite exhibition of all was Mary Ramsden’s ‘The bag of stars’ at Pilar Corrias. Mary had once again produced a beautiful and impressive show, which one expects to see of a mature artist
There was a remarkable Allison Katz exhibition at Camden Arts Centre, where we had the chance to interactive with one of the works. Using personal mythologies and embodied experience, Katz treats her own biography as source material, as well as drawing from dream objects, art historical references, and the texture of everyday life
Allison Katz is an impressive artist, and we were thrilled to see such an incredible array of ideas immersed so well into one show
Julien Creuzet’s ‘Too blue, too deep, too dark we sank…’ at Camden Art Centre was great! French-Caribbean artist Julien Creuzet’s work explores the social realities of the Caribbean diaspora referencing back to his ancestral home of Martinique
We dropped into the opening of Jeremy Epstein and Charlie Fellowes’ new Edel Assanti gallery space, and caught up with artist Dale Lewis, whose work we had seen in Miami at NADA
The new space was impressive and was showing the artist, Noémie Goudal, who had made a big impression at Frieze Art Fair last October and whose practice involves the construction of ambitious staged illusionistic installations, examining the intersection of ecology and anthropology in the natural world
At the Zabludowicz Collection we opened group exhibition, ‘Just… As An Artist’, in collaboration with therapeutic arts project, Portugal Prints. Gaynor Reynolds established Portugal Prints in 1979, and Sikelela Owen curated this exhibition
We loved Rosemarie Trockel’s show at Sprüth Magers, this is the first time we had seen her produce paintings
Final stop is Antonia Showering’s exhibition, ‘Mixed Emotion’ at Timothy Taylor gallery showing paintings that feature figures Showering calls ‘the people I love or have loved.’. I know her proud mum, and it is such a pleasure to see her flourishing
It was a sad to see the end of our lovely painting show at Zabludowicz Collection, 'The Stand-Ins'
And also we all have to say a sad ‘goodbye’ to a very important artist and friend of our Collection, Laura Buckley. I discovered her work alongside artist Haroon Mirza at college. She may have left us, but we are custodians of her work which will live on forever
