20130312153801-fm_ii_painting_700_3_mar_2013 Gretta Sarfaty’s Modes of Past  
by
Gretta Sarfaty at Sartorial Contemporary Art March 19th - April 5th
Posted 4/11/13

Gretta Sarfaty gained international recognition in the late 70’ as a body-art and performance artist. Beginning with a traditional medium of painting, she early started to experiment with new media and performance. Even if her art has remained authentically ingenious over the years, the ways of her expression have changed, reflecting the evolution of digital technology. She has never been dogmatic: even when expressing a strongly feminist approach, she moves smoothly around multitude of questi... [more]

Koestler_awards Neurologically stimulating creations  
by
at Hayward Gallery Project Space October 20th, 2009 - December 6th, 2009
Posted 12/24/09

This exhibition is simply brilliant and I was more touched by this exceptionally human art than I was by most of the pieces I saw at the last Documenta (Juan Davila excluded). One of the "offenders" (I would prefer to use the term people) said that it was shame she had to be imprisoned to discover art. Too true! In the United States the government spends more money on incarcerating people than on educating them - I hope this doesn't become the case in the UK. In this society, art and creativity are...

CHARLIE SMITH london is delighted to present John Stark with his first one person show in London, ‘Meliora Silentio’. The exhibition is also CHARLIE SMITH london’s inaugural show at our new Old Street gallery space. ‘Aut tace aut loquere meliora silentio’, reads the Latin epigram in Salvator Rosa’s self portrait of circa 1645.
