Slipping Glimpsers: George Blacklock and Gary Oldman

15 Apr-14 May 2016

Overview

The painter, George Blacklock, and actor, film-maker and photographer Gary Oldman have for the past twenty-five years engaged in a creative dialogue, sharing their respective journeys through painting, acting, filmmaking and photography; scrutinizing each others work and encouraging the development of new ideas. Their work was presented together for the first time at the Museo De Las Artes, Universidad De Guadalajara in 2015. Now, the exhibition travels to Flowers Gallery, London. The show is an important stopping off point in the creative journeys of both artists, to extend the conversation with others, and as they say: “to swap stories with friends; to collect supplies and support for the next trek; and to put into perspective the monsters in our path.”
