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and vessels are presented flattened and slightly out of shape; multiple minimalist selves cross architectural and art historical references; impressions of unrelated scenes captured on paper.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: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:Jeremy Jeffs – Lives We Cannot Live
DESCRIPTION:Documentary film maker and photographer Jeremy Jeffs spent three years photographing and interviewing people with ME in their homes. Lives We Cannot Live reveals the hidden reality of living with the condition. \nCurated by Sebah Chaudhry and supported by the ME Association\, the exhibition sets out to bring visibility to a hidden and neglected community and encompasses environmental portraits\, collaged with diary notes and personal memories of before being ill\, selected from more than 50 cases. \nDiagnosed with ME as a teenager\, Jeffs shares the lived experiences of his sitters and captures an intimate side of life rarely witnessed even by close friends. Hidden symptoms mixed with a general lack of awareness make this a doubly invisible and isolating disease. \n“I started this project out of frustration and anger because in the almost four decades since my diagnosis nothing has really changed. We still don’t know much about ME\, there’s still a lack of proper funding for research\, no clear treatment\, and worse\, there’s still widespread misunderstanding about the illness\, even among some healthcare professionals.” \nAround 400\,000 people in the UK have this debilitating and as yet incurable illness. Symptoms include profound fatigue\, sleep disturbance\, post-exertional malaise\, cognitive difficulties and a range of other symptoms like pain\, headaches\, nausea and intolerance to lights and noise. \nLives We Cannot Live is the first large scale project to focus on ME and precedes the publication of a photo book with Fistful of Books later this year.

SUMMARY:Pixels and Poetics: Sudek\, Funke\, and the Influence of New Technologies on the Development of Photography
DESCRIPTION:Pixels and Poetics: Sudek\, Funke and the Influence of New Technologies on the Development of Photography connects the world of interwar analogue photography with the visual aesthetics of today’s digital age. It offers visitors a unique opportunity to trace how the image has transformed over two centuries—from tangible traces of light to synthetic visual worlds created by artificial intelligence. \nThe exhibition presents iconic works by Josef Sudek and Jaromír Funke\, whose photographs demonstrate how light\, composition\, and atmosphere can transform reality into poetic or constructive visual worlds. These classical approaches are complemented by historical photomontages\, double exposures\, and analogue manipulations\, showing how deeply the desire to reshape the image is established in the tradition of photography. The historical works in the exhibition are drawn from the PPF Art collection\, which plays a key role in preserving and presenting Czech photographic heritage. \nThe contemporary section of the exhibition develops this dialogue through artists working with AI and generative technologies. In her work Your Addiction Is the Message\, Barbora Trnková reveals the mechanisms of visual dependency in the digital environment and the role of technologies in shaping our perceptions. Lenka Hamošová\, in the project Troubling GAN and the series Strange Attractions\, explores both the aesthetics and limitations of neural networks\, showing how algorithms create and reproduce stereotypes or visual hallucinations. A collaborative work by Trnková and Javůrek\, Generation of Princesses\, uses generative models to critically reflect on pop-culture ideals of femininity and their digital reconstruction. The exhibition offers a visually compelling and accessible perspective on how our understanding of the image\, reality\, and the things we are willing to believe when we look\, is changing. \nOrganised by the Czech Centre with the kind support of the PPF Foundation. \nEXHIBITION OPENING\nTuesday 20 January 2026\, 6.30 – 8.30 pm\nFree entry\, REGISTER HERE: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/pixels-and-poetics-private-view-tickets-1977922480383?aff=oddtdtcreator\nEXHIBITION DATES: 20 January – 13 March 2026\nVENUES & OPENING TIMES \nVitrínka Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n30 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4QY\nOpening hours: Tue – Fri 10am – 5pm \nBouda Gallery\, Czech Centre London\n132 Palace Gardens Terrace\, Kensington\, London\, W8 4RT\nOpening hours: Tue – Fri 10am – 5pm \nPublic space outside of the Czech Embassy\, London\n26 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London\, W8 4RT\nAccessible 24/7

SUMMARY:Sail to Hope – Solo Exhibition by Esra Kizir Gokcen
DESCRIPTION:With Sail to Hope\, Esra Kizir Gokcen presents her response to the far-reaching effects of globalisation. Born from human empathy rather than political drive\, her work questions the hierarchies that place humans above other life forms. \nIn paintings inspired by Eastern miniature art\, natural forces intermingle with crowds of abstract shapes and figures to represent the movements of people and cultures between past and present. Collaged paper boats folded from world maps symbolise the shared humanity of precarious passages too often reduced to numbers in news headlines. \nThe ubiquitous origami vessels also feature in a large-scale multi-media installation at the heart of the exhibition. These were co-created in workshops with diverse community groups. Participants christened each boat with a personal message of hope\, inspiring the exhibition title. A soundscape by Grammy-winning jazz saxophonist Tim Garland complements this collaborative work. \nThe artists have worked together since 2023\, when Garland commissioned Gokcen to create paintings for his orchestral work. Visuals for the current Moment of Departure tour constitute part of this exhibition. Tim Garland will play a selection from his current CD in several intimate concerts on both Saturdays. The afternoon performances will be followed by a Q&A with both artists who believe art can communicate positive messages and elevate the resilience of the human spirit. A selection of prints and posters are available in support of War Child. \nThe exhibition open times are as follows: \nMonday-Friday 12noon – 7pm\nSaturday 11am – 2pm\nSunday 12non – 4pm \nClick on the booking links for the music and art afternoons on 1 March and 8 March

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:Gothic Opera presents: Die Rheinnixen
DESCRIPTION:Unconventional opera company Gothic Opera returns to Battersea Arts Centre this Halloween\, this time with the UK staged premiere of Die Rheinnixen (The Nixies of the Rhine)\, an unjustly neglected\, Romantic work by Jacques Offenbach. \nDie Rheinnixen\, which is Offenbach’s first take on grand opera\, encompasses the growing nationalism of its time\, as well as the genre’s fascination with the supernatural. Gothic Opera is delighted to be staging this horror story for the first time in the UK. \nIn the capable hands of the award-winning international stage director Max Hoehn\, the evocative crumbling architecture of Battersea Arts Centre’s Grand Hall will be transformed into the time of the Weimar Republic\, a period of nationalism and unease. \nIn a bold production that will speak to our current times\, Gothic Opera will be joined by exciting conductor Hannah von Wiehler\, who has a very busy career across Europe. Leon Haxby\, the young composer whose previous work for the company was praised in Opera magazine for its “haunting magic” and “compassionate insight\,” has created a new chamber orchestration of the opera for seven instruments. A cast of talented singers will bring the characters and story to life. \nDie Rheinnixen performance details:\n30th October\, 7.30pm\n31st October\, 7.30pm\n1st November\, 7.30pm\n2nd November\, 5.00pm \nSung in German with English surtitles.

SUMMARY:SUSANNAH STARK & BAND + POTIK
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nSUSANNAH STARK & BAND\nPOTIK\nTuesday 20 January\nTheatreship\, South Quay Plaza\, London\, E14 9SH\n7.30pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/Db4300074e6f \nSUSANNAH STARK’s new album opens with questions that set its reflective tone while drifting on a current of birdsong\, rivers and synths. Sung in Gaidhlig and English\, her second album for Stroom and Night School\, ‘Minor Gestures’\, is a dialogue between place\, history and the listener. Collaborating with experimental and folk musicians in Glasgow\, Stark navigates acoustic textures with fluidity while blending breath\, drone and rhythm. The result is a meditative soundscape that celebrates vulnerability and curiosity. From the responsive waters of ‘Caochan’ to the unanswered queries of ‘Ceistean gun freagairtean’\, this is ritualistic sonic poetry. \nhttps://susannahstarkmusic.bandcamp.com/ \nPOTIK is artist Karolina Lebek\, working across a range of media including video\, photography\, sound\, installation and live performance. Her practice\, exploring interests in consciousness\, ecology and mental health\, gives new form to the exploration of the sacred\, the ritual and the body\, in the context of geological time. Through the desire to capture the affect of memory\, she’s expressing subtle and perturbing worlds\, building her own lexicon of symbolic language\, populated by unspoken narratives\, and haunting material mysteries\, exploring emotional and physical worlds\, both within oneself and those around us. \n \n

SUMMARY:Fishwives
DESCRIPTION:Step right up for FISHWIVES—a riotous comedy cabaret that’s smutty\, feminist\, historical\, and dare we say\, hysterical. \nIf Chaucer had a potty-mouthed sister with a vendetta against the patriarchy\, this is the show she’d have made. Written in verse with the gleeful irreverence of Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes\, Fishwives catapults the forgotten heroines of history onto centre stage—louder\, looser\, and far less ladylike than you remember. \nPenned and performed by seasoned comedy poet Abi Unwin-Smith (RCSSD)\, with a decade of live mischief under her belt\, this anarchic hour fuses poetry\, storytelling and movement with the high-energy chaos of vaudeville. Expect stripping suffragettes\, scandalous monarchs and the odd persecuted pudenda—no petticoat will be left unruffled. \nAfter a decade on the UK and Australian comedy and poetry circuits\, Fishwives now bursts forth as a full-throttle show: a bawdy mash-up of brains\, bosoms\, and belly laughs. In an age when women’s rights still hang precariously in the balance\, this show wields laughter as both weapon and salve. \nSo gird your loins\, ladies and gents. These lusty bawds have stories to tell—and it’s about bloody time we listened.

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:At the Edge of All Things
DESCRIPTION:At the Edge of All Things brings together three artists who conjure post-human landscapes in response to the uncertainties and frailties of contemporary life. The exhibition marks the start of a three-month series of events at a former warehouse in Borough as the building is prepared for its next chapter – the space itself a symbol of civic transition. \nAnna Woodward\, Annie Trevorah and Vilte Fuller provoke alternative futures in a world teetering on the brink of collapse. Examining the interconnectedness of humanity and the natural world from cultural and historical\, theoretical and personal perspectives the artists’ works capture a liminal moment between utopia and dystopia. \nIn her intricate paintings Anna Woodward’s depicts fantastical scenarios where the organic and human-made collide\, Annie Trevorah’s hybrid sculptures blur the lines between plant life and technology\, while Vite Fuller’s otherworldly scenes draw on ancient folktales and urban myths. Together they join nature’s alarm call to step back from the edge. \nThis inaugural show launches a creative hub hosted by IAG (Independent Art Galleries and Exhibitions) led by curator Josephine May Bailey. Over the course of three months\, the temporarily vacant space will act as a platform for dialogue\, experimentation and exchange by incorporating exhibitions\, artist residencies and collaborative programming.

SUMMARY:Maggie Roberts | Sheer Presence: While They Are Here…
DESCRIPTION:IMT Gallery is proud to present Sheer Presence: While They Are Here…\, a solo exhibition by multimedia artist Maggie Roberts\, exploring presence as a transformative force through watercolour paintings\, digital collage\, textiles and video. Responding directly to the ongoing ecological collapse\, violent destruction\, and the pervasive sense of uncertainty\, Sheer Presence acts as a cosmopolitical manifestation tool—a profound call to remain awake\, intentional\, and attuned to unseen forces shaping our shared reality. \nDrawing inspiration from Blaise Agüera y Arcas’ recent book What Is Life? Evolution as Computation (MIT Press\, 2025)\, the exhibition explores Sheer Presence as the distinct intrusion of another entity— often animal or virtual—disrupting the human order. Echoing the 8th-century Tibetan Buddhist Tattvasangraha text (verses 2892-2893)\, Roberts emphasises presence as the fundamental ability of an entity to profoundly influence and alter its environment\, reshaping perceptions and expanding experiences of reality. \nAt the heart of the exhibition is an ancient manifestation grid\, activated through six thematic “nodes”: ancestors><power; the invisibles><universe of multiple dimensions; crystal light><purpose; clarity><silent focus; creativity><collective imagination; and abundance><manifesting change. Each node directly addresses contemporary feelings of disconnection\, fragmentation\, overwhelming distraction\, and destabilisation\, offering pathways for healing\, imagination\, and renewal. \nRoberts invites visitors to follow Lines of Intention across this geometric terrain—a multi- dimensional map designed to reconnect with deep time\, invisible agents\, and ancestral wisdom. The sacred geometry that underpins manifestation practices\, is believed to align personal intentions with broader universal energies. At its centre sits the octopus\, Roberts’ Avatar of Manifestation\, representing fluidity\, adaptability\, distributed intelligence and the authentic self. \nWithin the images\, crystals and hagstones (naturally perforated stones shaped over millennia by ocean movement) serve as portals. Linked to folklore\, protection\, and divination\, hagstones reveal hidden truths\, amplifying the exhibition’s resonance with multidimensional frequencies\, agents and stories to foster the power of the imagination to bring change. \nABOUT MAGGIE ROBERTS \n\n\nMaggie Roberts has explored the boundaries of machine and human vision throughout her career\, exhibiting as a solo artist and as the collaborative artist 0rphan Drift (which she co-founded in London with Ranu Mukherjee in 1994). The work is increasingly underpinned by ecological issues and concerns entanglements of human\, technology and the wider biosphere as part of a process of co-evolution. 0rphan Drift employs various media – video\, 3D animation\, sound\, performance\, installation\, and text – particularly speculative experimental fiction. In recent years they have been considering artificial intelligence through the somatic tendencies of an octopus – as a distributed\, many minded consciousness\, manifesting in If AI Were Cephalopod at Telematic Gallery\, San Francisco\, her IMT Gallery Becoming Octopus Meditations\, ISCRI (partnered by the Serpentine Gallery’s AI Lab) and the current 0rphan Drift 9 Brains project. Their installations\, performances and speculative fictions have been exhibited nationally and internationally in gallery and museum spaces for over three decades. Other recent exhibitions include May the Other Live in Me\, Laboratoria Art Science\, Moscow; Still I Rise: Gender\, Feminisms and Resistance\, Nottingham Contemporary\, Nottingham; Matter Fictions\, Berardo Museum\, Lisbon; Speculative Fictions\, PDX Contemporary\, Portland; Eat Code and Die\, Lomex Gallery\, New York\, and in the book Fictioning: The Myth-Functions of Contemporary Art and Philosophy\, by David Burrows and Simon O’Sullivan. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRecent publications include Aqueous Humours\, Fluid Ground (Ed. Kirsten Cooke and Melanie Jackson\, pub. Matt’s Gallery); Serpentine Gallery’s Future Art Ecosystems 4; OctoGANN a Fiction (Creative Practice Journal); Hydrofeminist Thinking with Oceans (Routledge Press) and Pattern and Texture as Communication (Radical Matter Journal). \nRoberts teaches Fine Art Critical Studies at Central St Martins\, UAL and also lectures at many other UK art schools\, and presents 0rphan Drift’s work at symposia internationally. She is represented by IMT Gallery.

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.
