A brilliant profile on the creative powerhouse #TheasterGates was published in The Observer (UK) last weekend. The Chicago-based artist’s show at #WhiteCube Bermondsey opens Thu 6 Feb at 6.30pm and it’s going to be very special. It also marks his first time back at the venue in over 10 years ✨
Theaster Gates: ‘I’m an artist. It’s my job to wake things up’
In the week of Donald Trump’s inauguration, the US artist is in the UK with a show drawing on the legacy of Malcolm X – and an alternative vision for making America great again

The colour palette in #EtelAdnan’s jewel-like paintings draw from places that held meaning for her - from the Californian mountains to the Syrian desert and the Mediterranean Sea. Here are some wobbly photos taken by me in her fab New York show (a nice contrast to the freezing temperatures) 🏜️🌊✨

We recently started working with renowned artist / curator #howardenapindell. Coming of age during the civil rights movement, she began her career working at MoMA, later co-founding A.I.R. gallery, teaching + advocating for women artists. We made a great film with her 👉🏾 youtu.be/8uYhzSviCvQ?...

ArtReview. "In using the tableau image to navigate complex, divisive and often uncomfortable issues, an artist beholds the image’s potential to mimic, instil change, educate, and to challenge the parameters set in the objective world;" artreview.com/does-tableau...
Does Tableau Photography Deserve to Survive?
Despite the form’s modest resurgence – evidenced by Jeff Wall’s exhibition at White Cube London – its politics remain troubling

American abstract painter Lynne Drexler (1928-1999) was largely ignored by the art establishment until very recently. A show of her paintings from the 60s opens at White Cube tomorrow … the works are luminous and beautiful. I think they are a little Klimt-eque www.whitecube.com/gallery-exhi...

one day the White Cube gallery in Bermondsey will let me take my shoes off and attempt to slide the whole way down their long, smooth, shiny corridor in one go, that is my belief and my hope

Tracey Emin accomplishes what any great artist must do — turn the sacrificing of privacy into the spark of human connectivity.
