    6 Niche Art galleries to visit this Spring in London

    London’s gallery scene is the envy of the world and deservedly so. From the stately grandeur of the National Gallery to the riverside brutalism of the two Tates, you won’t be hard pushed to find a gigantic building in which to peruse legendary art. But this spring, why not forgo the usual suspects and explore…

  • George Stubbs — Portrait of a Horse

    George Stubbs — Portrait of a Horse

    “The history of mankind is carried on the back of a horse.” ­– Anonymous. Whether it’s a duty entrusted to us by a higher power or an organic hierarchy hashed out over billions of years, we’ve made something of a habit of shirking our responsibility to the natural world. With each industrial bound we take,…

    Carpenters Workshop Gallery — Spring ’26 exhibitions

    In West London’s Ladbroke Hall, the spring light arrives slowly, filtering through tall windows and settling across marble floors and plaster walls. It feels like the perfect setting for reflection; for design that asks us to pause. This season, Carpenters Workshop Gallery opens its spring–summer programme with three exhibitions (Komorebi, Caos Calmo and Persistence of…

  • Bertrand Lavier — Morceaux Choisis

    Bertrand Lavier — Morceaux Choisis

    Bertrand Lavier has long made a career out of framing both the extraordinary and the mundane with equal artistic reverence. His knack for manipulating reality, sometimes without intervening at all, is astounding, bewildering, ingenious and hilarious – all dependant on where you’re standing. What Lavier calls his “demonstrations” are less acts of making than acts…

  • Exhibition: Headstrong – Basquiat on Paper

    Exhibition: Headstrong – Basquiat on Paper

    Jean Michael Basquiat is one of those artists whose mythology has somehow outgrown its medium. In the same way Bob Marley is bigger than reggae or Elvis is bigger than rock ‘n roll, Basquiat is bigger than art. A common thread between artists of this ilk is that they didn’t set out to achieve this…

    1-54 Contemporary African Art — 7th Edition

    Diaspora. There’s that word again. It’s one of those overused terms whose meaning has diluted in impact. Words like ‘genius’ and ‘iconic’ – we all ascribe them to people or things we want to spotlight. A diaspora refers to a population scattered from their ancestral homeland, maintaining cultural ties to their origin while living elsewhere. Zoom…

  • Where to? — Cromwell Place

    Where to? — Cromwell Place

    It’s a curious paradox that in times of crises we must prioritise pillars of survival over enjoyment.   Healthcare, education and commerce have dominated our collective attentions these past couple of years and the world, by necessity, has been forced to take on a greyer complexion. However, it’s in these times of sparsity that the…

  • Giorgio Armani | Emotions Of The Athletic Body

    Giorgio Armani | Emotions Of The Athletic Body

    The world of “Sport Luxe” has landed en masse in the luxury fashion sector, and with it has come a newfound appreciation for the world of Sport; and quite rightly so too. Sportsmen – and women – are essentially (super)human representations, stretching our preconceived notions of what is physically possible, and with the increasing awareness…
