SUMMARY:Journey of Light
DESCRIPTION:Journey of Light is a solo exhibition of recent works by London-based artist Özlem Sorlu Thompson\, whose vibrant paintings embody the Mediterranean sun of her native Turkey. \n  \nThe centrepiece of the show was directly inspired by a recent visit to Şeytan Sofrası\, a volcanic hilltop on the Aegean coast known for a mythical lava pond that\, according to legend\, marks the spot where the devil left his footprint as he was expelled from heaven. \n  \nWhat started as a sketch on a small canvas grew into a polyptych and the artist’s largest painting to date. As each section blends into the next and layers of imaginary florals cover the dreamlike landscape\, Thompson takes us on a visual journey that merges ancient folklore with hopes for the future. \n  \nInitially approaching flora and fauna\, and exotic plants in particular\, with scientific curiosity\, Thompson’s art is guided by intuition and an interest in the less tangible qualities\, expressing her love for nature. Carrying the sun within them\, her work has been exhibited internationally and is held in collections as far afield as Dubai and the Americas. \n  \nJourney of Light marks the tenth anniversary of Özlem Sorlu Thompson’s move to North London and serves as a symbolic link between her motherland and her chosen home.

SUMMARY:Iconomorphosis
DESCRIPTION:Iconomorphosis describes the transformation of meaning through works of art that conceal their message until placed in a relevant cultural context. The eight artists in in this exhibition explore deceptive realities in contemporary life with works ranging from painting and sculpture to film and performance. \nCurated by Othello De’Souza-Hartley\, the exhibition addresses the tension between internal perceptions and external preconceptions\, through visual codes and symbolisms informed by individual experience and collective memory.  \nKamalishe Hiraldo\, Arlene Wandera and Abdollah Nafisi explore notions of belonging through working with discarded\, rejected or repurposed objects and materials\, while Taballa Tabasom’s practice is an enquiry into body memory and belonging through gendered and queer perspectives. \nWorking in sculpture and film respectively\, Sonia E Barrett and Blue Smith transform historical objects and archival footage into tools of narrative-making from within a postcolonial framework. \nOthello De’Souza’s integrates found objects into his predominantly black paintings as an invitation to look beyond first impressions or perceived imperfections\, while the ‘Black Nausea’ in BLCKGEEZER’s work has its origin in the artist’s ongoing experience of breast cancer and chemotherapy. \nWhether picked at random or for their inherent qualities\, for aesthetic or emotional reasons\, the elements that inform the works in Iconomorphosis provide a visual bridge between remembered pasts and imagined futures and question notions of unconditional truth.

SUMMARY:REUNION 79:21 - Revisiting Black Queer London Clubland
DESCRIPTION:For a short run of five days\, queer club culture returns to Soho with an archival exhibition exploring over four decades of Black queer nightlife and community in London. \n  \nWhereas focus is often placed on the white gay scene\, this exhibition showcases the history of Black queer club culture from the late 1970s to the present by documenting lived experience\, collective memory and self-representation through previously unpublished images and memorabilia sourced from public and private archives. \n  \nIn the 1980s\, Black queer and trans people in the UK began to attend underground parties as sanctuaries from discrimination\, creating community through music and dance. Inspired by the queer collectives in Chicago and Detroit\, the London nightlife scene combined US musical forms with home grown genres. \n  \nBrothers Steve and Dave Swindell were at the heart of London clubland\, Steve running successful nights like ‘The Lift’ and ‘Jungle’ with Dave documenting the emergence of Black queer visibility. His intimate imagery is shown alongside Jason Manning’s photographs taken in the bolder years that followed. \n  \nREUNION 79:21 is complemented by a programme of films and talks that expand on themes of kinship and shared belonging\, HIV and early LGBTQ activism\, and the fight for individual sovereignty at a critical time in the UK.

SUMMARY:Peter Peri in Conversation with Dávid Fehér – Book launch and display of recent paintings
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Liszt Institute London for an evening celebrating the launch of a new monograph on Peter Peri\, published by Einspach Czapolai Fine Art. \nPeri will be in conversation with Dávid Fehér\, Director of the Central European Research Institute for Art History of the Museum of Fine Arts. Their discussion will explore Peri’s artistic practice\, key themes in his work\, and the ideas shaping his most recent projects\, offering insight into both the newly published monograph and his wider artistic trajectory. \nThe event will also feature a display of Peri’s latest paintings in the gallery\, providing a unique opportunity to experience his practice first-hand alongside the critical perspectives presented in the publication. \nCopies of the book will be available on site. All are welcome to attend. Register via Eventbrite. \n\n\nPeter Peri (b. 1971\, London) \nPeter Peri’s primary media are drawing\, sculpture\, and painting: three distinct bodies of work that are developed independently by the artist to create a complex set of interrelations. All works are specifically invested in the tension between line and volume\, figuration and abstraction\, and in the questioning of tradition and influence in Modernism. \nA graduate of Chelsea College of Art\, he made his debut at Bloomberg New Contemporaries in 2003. He has exhibited widely internationally\, including Tate Britain\, the Hayward Gallery\, and Kunsthalle Basel. Peri’s work can be found in the collections of Tate\, the Victoria & Albert Museum\, and the Museum of Fine Arts\, Budapest. Peri’s work has a personal connection to Modernism. His grandfather was Peter László Péri (1899–1967)\, a Hungarian émigré to Britain who was involved in Constructivism before turning to architecture and later in his life to Realism \n\n\nDávid Fehér \nDávid Fehér is an art historian\, director of the Central European Research Institute for Art History of the Museum of Fine Arts\, and assistant professor at the Institute of Art History at the Eötvös Loránd University. His research covers 20th-century and contemporary art\, including Pop Art\, Photorealism\, and related movements. He has curated numerous exhibitions and has published widely in academic journals\, exhibition catalogues\, and art publications. He is a member of the Hungarian Section of the International Association of Art Critics.

SUMMARY:Connecting Threads
DESCRIPTION:Great Pulteney Street Gallery rings in 2026 with a group exhibition that explores the links between marginalised materials and cultural hierarchies. For Connecting Threads Paul Carey-Kent and Christina Niederberger selected eleven artists whose works broaden the scope of textile art. \nHaving long been dismissed as inferior to painting and sculpture\, stitched\, woven and threaded works are increasingly receiving attention and recognition\, yet are still widely considered as separate from traditional fine art disciplines. Just as aspects of identity relating to race\, sexuality or gender are becoming more fluid\, so are artists redefining their practice in terms of medium\, material or methodology. \nThe participants in Connecting Threads incorporate physical and conceptual elements of textile art into painting\, photography and sculpture in response to societal and political shifts. Sam Owen Hull comments on an increasingly polarised world with the material contradictions of spontaneous painterly marks and considered hand embroidery\, while Christine Niederberger interweaves unconscious readings of Abstract Expressionism as a male domain with textile elements widely perceived as female. Michael Raedecker and Tamar Mason both explore the impact of humanity on the natural world\, from an urban and rural perspective\, respectively. \nWith the majority of works in the show leaning towards more abstract and conceptual approaches\, Caroline Achaintre’s and Debbie Lawson’s tapestries bear the closest resemblance to traditional textile art. The former creates hybrid characters by blending materials and cultural references; the latter hides imaginary creatures in patterned carpets. \nJulie Cockburn and Berend Strik both use textile techniques to add new meaning to found photographs\, while Hannah Knox mirrors the meditative slowness of knitting when meticulously painting items of clothing. Kate Terry uses thread to draw physical lines into space while John Walter digitally re-engineers popular textile patterns to draw attention to the intersection of art\, science and architecture. \nThe location itself provides a link to Soho’s rag trade legacy that has evolved from fabric traders and garment showrooms to flagship boutiques and a fashion destination.

SUMMARY:9005 – Solo Exhibition by Othello De’Souza-Hartley
DESCRIPTION:For his solo exhibition at Bomb Factory Art Foundation conceptual artist Othello De’Souza-Hartley has teamed up with architect Laura Büchi and sound artist Elliott Buchanan who share his interest in the inter-dependencies of mind and body\, inner peace and external structures. \nDe’Souza-Hartley examines the human body and its imperfections by drawing parallels between skin tones and textures and architectural structures\, in particular the subtle variations evident in cast concrete. Working exclusively in black he creates tension by contrasting smooth surfaces with thick crusts of paint and integrating discarded objects and building materials into large scale paintings. \nThe exhibition title refers to the code number for pure black\, according to a colour chart dating back to 1920s Germany which is still used as standard by architects and designers today. The body of work in 9005 questions the pursuit of perfection and the hierarchy of materials\, reflecting the artist’s belief that art transcends notions of division or rank. \nA tranquil composition of structural\, material and sonic elements complements the large scale paintings surrounding it. Blacking out the external distractions of city life\, the collaborative sculpture provides a tranquil sanctuary for introversion and contemplation. \n  \n24 October – 9 November 2024 \nWednesday – Saturday\, 1-6pm (Thursday 7pm)\, Sunday 11am – 5pm \nThe Bomb Factory (Holborn)\, 99 Kingsway\, London WC2B 6QX

SUMMARY:Silent Systems: Breathing Devices (29th Made in Prague Festival)
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition curated by British curator Daré Dada\, gathers works by Appau Junior Boakye-Yiadom\, Filomena Borecká\, Esther Gaton\, Evar Hussanyi and Henrique Paris to reimagine breath as more than a biological act. \n\nBreathing becomes rhythm and pulse\, presence and absence\, the invisible measure of life that extends beyond the body into objects\, spaces\, and systems. It invites viewers to ask: What is a breath of a city\, a machine\, a material archive? How might breathing become a metaphor for cultural memory\, ecological interdependence\, or technological survival? Filomena Borecká’s practice\, attuned to the subtle energies of air and time\, anchors the exhibition’s meditation on breath as both force and metaphor. Here\, stillness is unsettled: objects expand and contract\, silent systems exhale\, and the unseen currents of existence ripple quietly through matter\, inviting us to reconsider our entanglement with the material world. The works gathered here challenge the presumed stillness of things\, offering instead an ecology of quiet urgencies\, of devices that hold air\, circulate energy\, or embody invisible rhythms. \n\nEXHIBITION OPENING\nFriday 31 October 2025\, 6 – 7.30 pm  \nFree entry\, REGISTER NOW\nJoint Private View with Breathing with ‘Breaths – Air Bladders’\nEXHIBITION DATES: 31 October 2025 – 16 January 2026\nVENUE\nVitrínka Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n30 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4QY\nOPENING HOURS:\nTue – Fri 10am – 5pm\n\nImage: “First Touch”\, Filomena Borecká\, ink and color pencils on paper (24 x 32 cm) Paris\, 2025 \nWhile exploring Silent Systems: Breathing Devices at Vitrínka Gallery\, you might also like to stop by the Czech Centre’s Bouda Gallery to see Filomena Borecká’s breathing sculpture.

SUMMARY:Language & Chaos For Beginners: A Lab For New Writers
DESCRIPTION:A playful workshop for the creatively curious. In games of chance and memory excavation\, we’ll spark new language\, scenes\, and storylines. \nDate and time: \nThursday\, October 16 · 6 – 8pm GMT+1. Doors at 5:45pm \nLocation: \nThe Residence Gallery \n229 Victoria Park Road London E9 7HD \nAbout this event: \nDo you ever feel like creative writing is unfamiliar territory\, that your attempts at crafting prose are quickly cut short by self-doubt\, or that––when it comes to language and story––you’re stuck in frustrating patterns? \nThis class invites you into a space of experimentation—through games of chance\, memory excavation\, and playful dives into our own half-remembered myths\, we’ll spark the creation of new language\, scenes\, and storylines. It’s particularly well-suited to those from visual arts backgrounds\, offering intuitive\, image-driven approaches to language and story. We are interested in the emergent: the ideas and worlds which appear in us regardless of our own beliefs about our writing skill. By loosening our grip on outcome and leaning into surprise\, we’ll sidestep habitual thinking and discover unexpected access points into storytelling. \nIf you have no English literature background whatsoever\, you’ll feel right at home; no prior literary training is assumed or required. Our approach is accessible and unpretentious\, with an emphasis on creative exploration rather than jargon. \nOur focus is on generative practices—approaches that forge a way into writing when you feel stuck\, uninspired\, or unsure where to begin. Game objects like dice and tarot cards will help us invite random chance and ‘good chaos’ into our work\, encouraging surprise and spontaneity in the creative process. You’ll collect a range of practical tools to carry with you: ways to jumpstart new projects\, tap into unfamiliar voices\, re-enter stalled scenes\, and re-engage with memory. Curiosity will be our engine as we explore accessible\, repeatable methods designed to move us beyond creative ruts and into fresh terrain. \nYou might walk away with the beginnings of something new—a character\, a scene\, an idea—but the real goal is to give you an experience of writing that feels alive and personally meaningful. This is a space to write without pressure\, to get curious\, and to let your creative instincts lead the way \nWhat to Bring:\n– A notebook and pen (I strongly encourage this over a laptop\, but of course bring whatever tools meet your needs)\n– Things to make your seated area more comfortable\, like a pillow or a blanket\n– a coin\, a 6-sided dice\, and a tarot deck (only if you have them––we’ll have extras)\n– A favourite fairytale– no need for a physical copy\, just have one in mind! \nArianna Reiche is the author of Warden / Star (Tangerine Press) and At The End Of Every Day (Atria Books/Simon & Schuster)\, and has been praised by The New York Times for her ‘enormous gifts’. She was Founding Editor of The Wrong Quarterly\, and her short fiction has appeared in Ambit Magazine\, Joyland\, The Mechanics’ Institute Review\, Berlin’s SAND Journal\, Feels Blind Literary\, Lighthouse Press\, and Popshot. She’s written features for ArtNews\, New Scientist\, The London Fashion Week Daily\, Fest Magazine\, Vogue International\, and Vice. She teaches on City University’s creative writing MFA programme\, where she also carries out doctoral research on interactive narratives and metafiction\, with a focus on multimodal\, non-linear storytelling.

SUMMARY:We belong to the Earth - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Venetia Nevill creates multi-sensory and interactive installations that act as a pathway to healing through a reconnection with nature. Her practice draws on ritual\, astrology and a sensory connection with nature. \nWe belong to the Earth is a result of the artist’s ongoing exploration into the stillness within and around us. The healing powers of a local spring flow through many of Nevill’s works and are shared through a sensory mandala at the heart of the exhibition. Her ‘night vision paintings’ on the other hand are witnesses of the inner resources that aid the alchemising of pain into a source of peace. \nAn installation of small clay vessels formed around cedar cones was co-created with family and friends\, each vessel holding individual expressions of unmet needs. Together they become a Mandala of Hope with clay connecting the human spirit with the natural world\, and the cedar tree offering healing\, protection and abundance.

SUMMARY:THE OPEN DOOR
DESCRIPTION:THE OPEN DOOR is a collaborative exhibition about belonging and displacement across time and space by Aude Hérail Jäger and Tisna Westerhof. The project evolved from conversations during the 2020 pandemic when the two artists started exchanging thoughts and creative ideas about notions of home\, the significance of childhood memories and family ties\, especially during separation. \nThe result is a collection of intimate works based on personal experience interlaced with critical observations of contemporary life\, particularly the role of women in society both past and present\, expressed in works on paper\, textiles\, and sculpture. \nAn integral part of the project is the Women’s Quilt of Pride\, a collaborative piece of textile art created in workshops with members of the local communities in France and London. Participants were invited to dedicate a textile square to an inspirational woman\, family member\, friend\, or public figure. The experience of personal expression through an ancient craft formed a cathartic bond between the participants\, while the resulting quilts served as testaments of togetherness and hope. \nFirst shown in the vast vaults of a former vineyard in rural France this Spring\, the exhibition has been adapted to the urban setting of a converted motorbike garage. For the London iteration\, the artists have worked closely with members of The Feminist Library\, who will present a selection of their large archive collection of feminist literature to complement the displays.
