London for Fun

The Albemarle Gallery

Exhibitions currently running:

Juan Cossio - Juan Cossio uses an airbrush as his principal working tool to build up these beautifully detailed paintings. In doing so, he has taken an instrument originally designed to simply retouch photographs and instead utilises it in order to recreate a photographic image in its entirety. Cossio masterfully arranges each of his compositions in order to poetically communicate a visual message to the viewer. The characters in his works are often dressed in white robes and placed in functional, minimalistic interiors. This leaves each of Cossio’s paintings devoid of a context in time or place and means that it is the women’s facial expressions and the placement of their bodies which primarily do the talking in these pieces, rather than the clothes they wear or the spaces they inhabit. From 8 May until 31 May.
