Last chance for Frank Bowling at the @tate! Born in Guyana (then British Guiana) in 1934, at 19 years old Bowling moved to London. He went on to study painting at the Royal College of Art alongside David Hockney and R.B. Kitaj.
After graduating with a silver medal, he spent the next 60 years criss-crossing the Atlantic between studios in London and New York. Maturing into a master of his medium, he developed a visionary approach that fuses abstraction with personal memories. Now 85 he still paints every day, experimenting with new materials and techniques.
The exhibition brings together a lifetime of large-scale artworks. It includes key series such as the iconic 'map paintings', the visually arresting ‘poured paintings’ made by pouring paint down an inclined surface, and the sculptural paintings of the 1980s evoking riverbeds, all the way to mature work selected from a recent period of explosive productivity.

Incredibly excited for @annetgelinkgallery upcoming Ed van der Elsken
exhibition “Sweet Life.” In this exhibition, visitors can experience his travelogue which chronicles van der Elsken and his wife Gerda van der Veen fourteen-month journey around the world: from West and South Africa, to the Malaysian Peninsula and from the Philippines to Hong Kong, Japan, the United States and Mexico. In Sweet Life Van der Elsken celebrates life in high contrast images with dark and pessimistic undertones. Or, as described in Camera in Love (2017), “The photographic odyssey embodies Van der Elsken’s sense of adventure, his entrepreneurial spirit, his inexhaustible fascination with people and other cultures” Opening September 7 from 5-7 pm.

Genevieve Gaignard’s “I’m Sorry I Never Told You That You’re Beautiful” at the @vielmetter in LA is still going on! Known for her exploration of Americana via racial formation, interiority and portraiture, Gaignard disrupts symbols and images, which attempt to assure supremacy and erase merging identities and notions of belonging. This exhibition explores affinity of place, desires of flight/departure, and an empathic turn through installation, collage, sculpture, and photography.

Now at the Braem Pavilion at the @middelheimmuseum, an art park in Antwerp: “Ana Mendieta - Earthbound.” At the heart of this exhibition are her animistic worldview, fascination with earth, water, air, fire and their elemental energy and a direct connection with nature. “My art is the way I reestablish the bonds that unite me to the Universe. It is a return to a maternal source.” - Ana Mendieta, 1983. © Estate of Ana Mendieta Collection & Galerie Lelong & Co.
