London Art Fair: Stand 27

Gesture and Colour: Women in Modern & Contemporary British Art

Our presentation for the London Art Fair 2024 concentrates on a tightly curated group of woman artists for whom gesture and colour are primary concerns. The selected artworks employ abstract mark making and occupy a hinterland where the boundaries between representational art and pure abstraction are often blurred. There is a strong sense of the pleasure derived (both in the making and viewing of) strong dynamic colours and expressive forms. The artist’s inherent love of their medium is immediately evident. Well known figures, including senior Royal Academicians, have been paired with established gallery artists and exciting young talents to further emphasise the rich lineage of woman in modern and contemporary British art.

Artists: Gillian Ayres, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Romy Elliott, Mary Fedden, Chloë Lamb, Mali Morris, Emily Powell and Barbara Rae
