WHAT SHE DIDN'T SAY
Jun 27 - Jul 11, 2020 FINAL WEEK
By Appointment Only.
 
Expanded paintings, sculptures and weavings by four female artists focusing on the boundaries and spaces between our inner experience of being and what we are able to express to others. The works lure you in with beauty but have an uneasiness and disquiet. Fragmented, translucent with traces of existence, but no humans present.
 
Clare Dudeney's freeform weavings map intangible, unspoken thoughts and feelings through relationships of colour and shape. Justine Formentelli's paintings and sculptures explore the interaction between our internal landscapes and the external world; and how our personal geology made of memories, fleeting sensations, key life events and areas of ambiguity define our perception. Rachel Goodison invites us to experience the spaces in between her playful sculptural forms, exploring the emotions we feel when surrounded by familiar materials presented in unfamiliar ways. Maddie Yuille's domestic interior paintings illuminate the inanimate, like a film cutaway from the drama, they offer glimpses of life without coherent narrative.

DARK SILO : ADAM SHIELD AND RICHIE MOMENT
Jul 25 - Aug 2, 2020
Private view Fri Jul 24
Excessively charged output verses stockpiling of the worry maker.
 
Living in the underground there is an explosive cache ready to be launched, acting as storage for the excess, the unneeded, all the dark shit you can’t deal with right now.
 
This is dark silo.
 
In a world of unlimited storage there must be an overflow.
 
Adam Shield & Richie Moment
 
Exhibiting new works and publication.

OFF STAGE : FRANK CREBER
Aug 8 - 23, 2020
Private view Fri Aug 7
Frank Creber presents a series of large narrative paintings about his experiences of living and working in the community in East London. The main action of the story, in each painting, takes place in a space in between neighbourhoods observed on location from Lower Clapton Road in Hackney to The Royal Docks in Newham.
 
Creber uses found images of people that resonate with his personal experiences. Drawing with ink on paper he develops a series of protagonists that are brought together in compositions. The resulting oil paintings explore the possibility that community can bring vitality to an atomised society.
 
Frank Creber is based at Thames-Side Studios. For more on Frank's work visit www.frankcreber.space

ELLA KRUGLYANSKAYA : THIS IS A ROBBERY
Mar 11 - Jul 24, 2020
Part 1: 3 Duke Street, St. James’s, London, SW1.
Part 2: 11 Duke Street, St. James’s, London, SW1.
For her second London exhibition at Thomas Dane Gallery, Ella Kruglyanskaya displays her deeply original streak—part-rebellious, part-classicist—and continues her focus on the gendered and expressionistic histories of painting albeit with a more personal and introspective drive. The exhibition takes the form of a continuous collage in two parts across both gallery spaces. Each includes a profusion of works on canvas, egg tempera panels and works on paper, unpacking the traditions of portraiture, still-life, trompe l’oeil and the memento mori, scrutinising her own artistic output throughout.

ADAM GILLAM : IN CONSTANT USE
Jun 10 - Jul 18, 2020
IN CONSTANT USE refers to the space in which Adam Gillam currently works – a garage awaiting conversion to a studio, and to his working methods. Change, evolution, and cannibalization are key to his practice. Gillam has a passion for playful bricolage, imposing witty transformations on found materials.

DRAWN TOGETHER - ONLINE FUNDRAISER
Jun 4 - Jul 12, 2020 FINAL WEEK
This June, Unit London is staging an expansive online exhibition. Drawn Together will feature the work of over one-hundred international contemporary artists to raise funds and awareness for frontline medical staff and vulnerable communities worldwide. In recent times, many of our lives have been simplified by the restrictive presence of COVID-19. In many instances this has forced us to slow down and turn our focus back to the basics - even at a time of unprecedented technological advancement, we find ourselves longing for the most simple analogue values. Drawn Together, which will feature work from artists such as Katherine Bradford, Chantal Joffe, Frank Auerbach, Maggi Hambling and Kenny Schachter, taps into this new found need for simplicity by presenting unique drawings and works on paper, the sale of which will benefit vulnerable individuals around the world, and those that make great sacrifices to help them.

ABOUT THE HUMAN FIGURE
Jun 25 - Sep 4, 2020
Michael Werner Gallery, London is pleased to announce the reopening of our gallery and the opening of our new group exhibition titled About the Human Figure, which will run in tandem with our summer online exhibition titled The Human Figure. On view at Michael Werner Gallery, London will be a selection of major paintings and sculpture by James Lee Byars, Enrico David, Peter Doig, Florian Krewer, Francis Picabia, A.R. Penck, Sigmar Polke, Raphaela Simon, and Don Van Vliet.
From the beginning of time, humans have desired to see themselves reflected in art. The human figure was rendered on cave walls and carved into stones to be carried as totems or idols. Since antiquity, artists have expanded on these early impulses, and the portrayal of the human figure has a long tradition in the history of art. Displaying works created from 110 years ago until today, About the Human Figure explores the limitless possibilities of the human figure in painting and sculpture.
About the Human Figure opens 25 June at Michael Werner Gallery, London and will remain on view through 4 September. The gallery is open by appointment from 25 June to 3 July, Tuesday to Friday from 11am to 5pm. The gallery will reopen to the public on 7 July, Tuesday to Friday from 10am to 6pm. To ensure the safety of the public and staff, Michael Werner Gallery, London has implemented social distancing guidelines, which can be found on our website, or by contacting us via email at london@michaelwerner.com, or by calling +44 207 495 6855.

BRIDGET RILEY : STUDIES: 1984–1997
Reopening Monday, June 15
This exhibition presents studies that show Riley’s movement from “stripes” to “rhomboids,” reflecting the connection between the writings of Klee and her own understanding of abstract painting. As Riley notes, “Paul Klee was of seminal importance to me because he showed me what abstraction meant.”
