DESCRIPTION:Disruptors: Fractured Images and Migrant World is a collaborative exhibition that brings together works from the Ben Uri and William Allen Collections\, with additional loans from artists and private collections\, featuring more than 50 works and previously unseen archival material. It traces more than a century of experimentation in word-image relations\, from early twentieth-century historical avant-garde practice to post-war developments in concrete poetry and conceptual art. Spanning collage\, painting\, sculpture\, book art\, textiles\, photography\, typography\, mixed media\, and archival material\, the exhibition brings together artists who disrupt the boundary between reading and viewing.

SUMMARY:Noisy World - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:With simple line drawings of ordinary objects and mundane moments\, Perfect outlines an alternative vision to the competitive pursuit of perfectionism in modern society. \nAs though retrieved from a surreal flower press\, people\, plants and vessels are presented flattened and slightly out of shape; multiple minimalist selves cross architectural and art historical references; impressions of unrelated scenes captured on paper. \nWith each drawing a gentle act of rebellion\, against colour theory and perspective\, against hierarchies between foreground and background\, humans and things\, Noisy World celebrates the humane and humorous aspects of everyday life. \nGallery opening hours:\nSaturdays 10 am – 4 pm\nSundays 12 noon – 4 pm

SUMMARY:Soho Solos: Mandy Hudson\, James Robert Morrison\, Conor Quinn\, Alice Sheppard Fidler
DESCRIPTION:Great Pulteney Street gallery is delighted to present Soho Solos\, four solo presentations by Soho Open prize winners Mandy Hudson\, James Robert Morrison\, Conor Quinn and Alice Sheppard Fidler. \nSelected from around 100 artists shortlisted for the inaugural Soho Open exhibition\, each of the winning artists returns with a solo presentation in one of the four galleries at GPS. Running concurrently\, the Soho Solos provide a snapshot of the exciting variety of approaches in contemporary art today. \nAlice Sheppard Fidler and Mandy Hudson find inspiration in and give new meaning to discarded\, overlooked and found objects. Whereas Hudson elevates everyday items by arranging them into still lifes\, immortalising them in her paintings\, Sheppard Fidler combines objects and materials into sculptures and installations that shift and evolve in relation to the space they inhabit. \nConor Quinn and James Robert Morrison reclaim memories of secrecy and shame shaped by their experience of growing up gay within heteronormative and adversarial environments. While Quinn combines elements of self portraiture and handmade puppets into surreal oil paintings\, Morrison translates imagery from personal vintage gay pornography into delicate pencil drawings\, using cigarette (fag) papers as a fragile\, unconventional surface. Presented in separate spaces under one roof in Soho\, the four solos come together as a collection of visual short stories.

SUMMARY:Summer Music in City Churches - 'Around the World' - London Concerts
DESCRIPTION:A nine-day celebration of music in the City of London \nSet in the heart of London’s historic Square Mile\, Kestrel Music’s nine-day festival\, Summer Music in City Churches\, returns with a world-class roster of artists taking a musical voyage ‘Around the World’. Hosted across five atmospheric\, acoustically rich churches\, this year’s theme explores music inspired by cities\, landscapes and traditions. From traditional song and jazz arrangements\, to lush choral harmonies and orchestral favourites\, the programme celebrates sounds of town and country\, both at home and abroad. \nGuest artists are drawn from the finest musicians and collaborative partnerships performing internationally today\, including Rachel Nicholls and Michael Dussek\, Lucy Parham with Juliet Stevenson\, Mark Bebbington with Alistair McGowan\, and Iain Farrington’s jazz trio. Joining them will be multi-talented duo Eleanor Grant and Gus McQuade\, and young singers from Hackney Choral. A wealth of chamber music further enriches the programme\, with lunchtime performances by Brother Tree Sound\, Tier3 Trio\, Cassatt Trio\, and Sonas Quartet. \nOpening the festival\, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Gergely Madaras conjure the Mediterranean warmth of Spain and Italy in works by Rossini\, Ravel and Mendelssohn. They are joined by guitarist Jack Hancher\, 2022 Royal Overseas League Gold Medalist and EuroStrings Artist\, as soloist in Rodrigo’s evocative Concierto de Aranjuez. \nThere are opportunities to hear the City of London Choir led by Daniel Hyde on two contrasting occasions performances; as part of a Festival Choral Evensong in the grand tradition of British cathedrals\, and to celebrate traditional song rooted in the land – from George Shearing’s jazz settings to Elgar in Bavaria\, in the festival’s delightful finale\, ‘Islands and Highlands’. \nSummer Music in City Churches was founded in 2018\, presenting beautiful music to engage\, divert and inspire\, in ancient and architecturally stunning churches in London’s Square Mile. Standing cheek by jowl with City offices\, these churches are glorious settings in which to listen and reflect: oases of history\, beauty and peace amidst the 24-7 hurly-burly of City life. \nVenues \nSt Giles-without-Cripplegate\, Fore Street\, Barbican EC2Y 8DA \nSt Andrew by the Wardrobe\, St Andrew’s Hill\, Queen Victoria Street EC4V 5DE \nSt Botolph-without-Bishopsgate\, Bishopsgate EC2M 3TL \nSt Mary-at-Hill\, Lovat Lane\, EC3R 8EE \nSt Stephen Walbrook\, 39 Walbrook EC4N 8BN \nFurther information and how to book \nFull programme\, venues\, timings and ticket sales can be found on the website. \nTicket prices range from £15 to £35\, with half-price discounts available for students and those under 25.

SUMMARY:REJECTS - Artworks by the Royal Academy
DESCRIPTION:REJECTS: A Celebration of Overlooked Artworks by the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. \nNow in its fourth year and previously featured in The BBC\, The Guardian\, and The Art Newspaper\, REJECTS is back this June with a brand-new line-up of artists and artworks that didn’t make it into the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. Each year around 18\,000 artists apply to the RA\, but only about 1\,500 make the cut\, leaving a whole lot of talent that might otherwise go unseen. \nHoused in a quaint 19th-century bakery on Notting Hill’s iconic Portobello Road\, this year’s exhibition provides a defiant spotlight for these brilliant\, overlooked works. Spanning painting\, sculpture\, photography\, textiles\, and mixed media\, the show features a fresh mix of emerging and established artists reclaiming their space on the summer art calendar. Expect a range of bold statements and thoughtful storytelling\, from bright\, joyful paintings and embroidered buildings to hauntingly beautiful figures. \nWhether you’re an art collector or just art-curious\, Art Friend welcomes everyone to the gallery. So you can decide for yourselves: did the judges make the right decision? Come be the critic and see which artworks make your cut. And if you really love a REJECT\, you can buy it and take it home with you\, as all the artwork on display is for sale. \nOpening Night Drinks: Thursday 18 June & Friday 19 June\, 5–9 pm Join us for drinks\, music\, and a first look at this year’s REJECTS. \nWhy REJECTS matters: REJECTS isn’t just an exhibition\, it’s a movement. It highlights how much talent is out there and how many people face rejection on a daily basis\,we have all been rejects once! So come join the club\, root for the underdog and enjoy seeing what talent has been given a second chance.

SUMMARY:A Professorial Lecture by Professor Ioannis S. Pantelidis
DESCRIPTION:“Hospitality as a regenerative force for human connection\, wellbeing and leadership” \nIn this lecture\, Professor Ioannis S. Pantelidis examines the changing landscape of hospitality and tourism and shows how the sector can create regenerative ecosystems through innovation\, behaviour and human-centred leadership. Intelligent systems\, data-driven personalisation and rising experiential expectations are transforming service environments\, yet the true source of excellence remains the human touch. Hospitality cultivates empathy\, cultural awareness\, agility and the practical art of caring for others. These qualities strengthen leadership across health\, business\, transport\, the creative industries and every area where human interaction shapes success. At a time when isolation and mental health concerns are increasing\, the values of hospitality become even more significant. Warm service\, genuine welcome and meaningful moments support emotional well-being and deepen social connection. Drawing on research\, education and lived experience\, Professor Pantelidis offers an optimistic and thought-provoking vision of a sector that continues to evolve while remaining rooted in human values that can guide society toward stronger communities and more compassionate leadership.
