MEL BRIMFIELD : BETWEEN GENIUS AND DESIRE

13 Jul-18 Aug 2012

Overview

Ceri Hand Gallery’s Project Space launches with artist Mel Brimfield’s second solo exhibition with the gallery, which sets out to explore the enduring romantic image of the heroic artist as a conduit of violent creative passion. The Project Space and exhibition present a taste of things to come in advance of Ceri Hand Gallery launching a new permanent gallery space in central London later this year. The extraordinary range of Brimfield’s practice is reflected in this exhibition: she selects music, writes and directs the scripts and films, makes all the props and sets, enabling her to fully collaborate with actors, opera singers, photographers, artists and musicians to create the final works.
