Leonor Fini @ Nagas

Leonor Fini: Small Faces is at Nagas Gallery through May 24th and it’s a great opportunity to see some of Fini’s delicate work up close in an intimate environment. It is important to know that the gallery is on the second floor facing the street and you need to buzz the (at the time) unmarked…

Vanessa German @ Kasmin

I have much to share from yesterday’s brief jaunt to the city but from the last trip I have not yet shared these amazing images from the Kasmin Gallery where the Vanessa German show ends TODAY. For this last day the artist will be there to commune with the works and with whoever comes so…

Leonora Carrington @ Rose Museum

A walk through the gallery taking a look at the drawings and paintings in this exhibit. If you can get there before it closes, don’t miss this! I thought it would be modest but it is full of riches — things I’ve not seen before and you know I see all the Carrington I can….

20×20 + Arcane Alchemy

Busy week ahead! Not one but two art openings and one big reception for both. Two photos and two charms in the 20×20 show: And in the big exhibit upstairs all kinds of magical pieces from Stephanie and me, which her beautiful poster hints at. You will be amazed! Paintings, sculpture, conceptual pieces, films, and…

Leonora @ Kumu

The first of the Tallinn posts: I was considering getting down to Tartu to see the Estonian Surrealist exhibit, but there just wasn’t time in my schedule. Oh but wait — posters around town advertising Leonora at the Kumu? Yes, please. Enjoy the vicarious visit to the exhibit, where I made the docent nervous by…

Hilma af Klint & Mondrian

I believe the exhibit is ending soonish, so I ought to get around to sharing some photos which I neglected to do back when I was in London. There’s always too much going on. The illusion that sometime I will be ‘caught up’ is one I should have relinquished long ago. Exciting new things to…

Berthe Morisot

In a rather adventurous turn for me, I took out my passport and headed to suburbia in order to see an exhibit of Berthe Morisot at the Dulwich Picture Gallery, which was on the edges of my consciousness for having held a British Surrealism exhibit some few years ago featuring of course Carrington and others….

Armed with Madness: Mary M. & Bryan Talbot

The embarrassment of riches continues: I have been eagerly anticipating this since Mary started dropping hints last year. I am hoping to arrange an interview with the two of them, but anon — in the meantime let me tell you about this fabulous book. You’ll know (or should!) Mary and Bryan from projects like the…

Leonora Carrington: Revelation

I said an embarrassment of riches around Leonora Carrington, didn’t I? Well here’s glory for you: the catalogue from the exhibit this year that brought to public view many parts of her life that have not been seen before (if you’re not someone like Joanna Moorhead who did get to see them) like her home…
