SUMMARY:Nina | Battersea Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:“I’m a seagull. No\, that’s not right. I’m an actress.”\nA series of actresses audition to play Nina in The Seagull for a charismatic\, yet sinister director. His methods are unorthodox\, annihilating\, and very effective. \nIn a debut play from celebrated director Caroline Williams\, co-directed by award-\nwinning artist Deborah Pearson\, NINA questions why so many women are drawn to\nplay an actress who has everything taken away from her by men. And why do the men\nin Chekhov’s original play keep trying to turn the girls they fancy into dead seagulls? \nIn a post #MeToo era\, NINA is a meta theatrical fever dream on coercion\, power and the quest for creative expression. \n“One of the most insightful encounters I have had in a theatre.” Theatre Voices \n“If the opportunity presents itself to see Pearson’s work you must go immediately.” The Huffington Post

SUMMARY:The Abbey Art Centre as Postwar Refuge\, 1946–56
DESCRIPTION:Ben Uri is delighted to announce the upcoming exhibition\, The Abbey Art Centre as Postwar Refuge\, 1946–56\, marking the simultaneous publication of The Abbey Art Centre in postwar London 1946–1956\, eds.\, Jane Eckette\, Ian McLean and Sheridan Palmer (Routledge)\, this autumn. \nThe exhibition unfolds the remarkable story of the Abbey Art Centre\, a cosmopolitan art colony established at New Barnet in 1946 by charismatic artist\, gallerist and world art collector\, William Ohly (1883–1955). A crucible of creativity on London’s northern edge\, the Abbey was a postwar haven for stateless Jewish refugees\, as well as artists from Australia\, Britain and continental Europe. Ohly’s openness to outsiders extended to his dealings at the Berkeley Galleries in Mayfair\, which opened in late 1941 during the Blitz and where Abbey artists occasionally exhibited\, as well as Commonwealth artists and artists from Ohly’s own world art collection. The Abbey was an important seeding bed for cross-cultural and transnational modernism that proved pivotal to the careers of many artists\, as they navigated the seismic political and cultural shifts taking place in the postwar and postcolonial artistic landscape in Britain and beyond. \nFeaturing paintings\, sculpture\, drawings\, monotypes\, lithographs\, puppets and related photographs\, books and archival materials\, the exhibition includes artworks by Abbey residents Scottish painter Alan Davie\, English sculptor Peter King\, English painter Lilian Colbourn\, German émigré painters and printmakers Marcel Frishman\, Margret Kroch-Frishman and William Ohly\, Austrians Helen Grünwald and Angela Varga\, sculptors Inge King and Gudrun Krüger\, pioneering German animator Lotte Reiniger\, Ukrainian painter Stacha Halpern\, Australian constructivist Robert Klippel and painters James Cant and Mary Webb. Narrative sub-themes include the impact of African and Indigenous Australian art on emerging artists and socially conscious painter-printmakers working in London’s East End. The exhibition also features a small number of artists associated with the Berkeley Galleries including Nigerian modernist Ben Enwonwu\, German sculptor Fred Kormis and Prussian-born graphic artist Katerina Wilczynski\, as well as related photographs\, books and archival materials. \nA book launch and a related series of events will accompany the exhibition.

SUMMARY:WITH EACH LOOK | Lower Slopes
DESCRIPTION:Lower Slopes launches with pop-up exhibition in Islington while renovations continue at its permanent home in Highgate. \n\nLower Slopes’ opening exhibition serves as an introduction and an invitation. Bringing together many of the artists we’ll be presenting in our upcoming programme\, it is a statement of intent and a proposition to the viewer: look again for a deeper encounter. \nWhile impactful at first glance\, the works on display do not reveal themselves fully. They reward further attention: a closer look\, a shift in perspective\, a peek inside. \nAs we move through the exhibition\, our gaze is unsettled. At times we assume the role of voyeur\, while the subjects are distracted or have their backs turned; at others\, we feel stared down\, as if the works are watching us. \n\n\nEXHIBITION INFORMATION\nVenue: 6 Charlton Place\, Islington\, London N1 8AJ\n\nExhibition: 23 October – 1 November 2026\n\nOpening Hours: Wednesday-Sunday: 11am-5pm\n(Closed Monday and Tuesday)

SUMMARY:Immo Klink: Victoria’s Trees
DESCRIPTION:As part of PhotoMonth 2026\, award-winning artist Immo Klink presents Victoria’s Trees\, a photographic series of nocturnal trees placed in dialogue with the highs and lows of urban routines\, from corporate life to dark kitchens. \nThe exhibition started as a personal project around solace found in nature and with capturing the bare branches that shape London’s parks during the winter months. Combined with urban scenes taken while working as a delivery rider\, Victoria’s Trees grew into a wider reflection on the precarity of city life\, powerlessness and inequality driven by AI and climate change. \nForegrounding the positive effects of access to nature\, presented at an urban winery situated next to Victoria Park where the project originated\, the exhibition also represents an extension of the artist’s political work. Klink has documented causes ranging from climate action to civil liberties\, most recently campaigning with the Citizens Arrest Network to bring water and fossil fuel CEOs to justice. \nWhile the pressures on society and the need for activism increase\, political art is a particularly hard sell. Immo Klink responds with a crowdfunding campaign that mirrors the ethos of Victoria’s Trees by offering fine art prints of trees while raising awareness and support for his practice. \nOpen Times: Thursday 4-8pm\, Friday 4-9pm\, Saturday 12-4pm\, Sunday 12-4pm or by appointment

SUMMARY:David Byrne’s American Utopia | The Exchange Theatre Twickenham
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Spike Lee\, this electrifying concert film features iconic songs and unforgettable performances. \nSpike Lee documents the former Talking Heads frontman’s brilliant\, timely 2019 Broadway show\, based on his album and tour of the same name. \n‘Do we get stupider as we grow up?’ In his wildly popular Broadway show American Utopia\, David Byrne reflects on human connections\, life and how on earth we work through it. He joins the dots with his music and it all starts making sense. Spike Lee here transforms the production into immersive\, dynamic cinema that radiates with astounding performances\, inventive contemporary dance and political urgency. \nAmerican Utopia flows like an iridescent dream vision. Work by James Baldwin\, Janelle Monáe and Kurt Schwitters is highlighted among exhilarating renditions of Byrne’s solo work\, as well as Talking Heads classics. According to the multi-hyphenate\, we love looking at humans more than anything else. Anti- fascist and anti-racist\, Byrne illuminates our responsibility to care for one another as he and his co-performers burn down the house. \nExperience DAVID BYRNE’S AMERICAN UTOPIA in stunning 4K!
