RITA ACKERMANN – MAMA ’20

Posted on 2020-10-12

In this exhibition, Hungarian-born, New York-based artist Rita Ackermann presents her latest body of work, a continuation of her Mama series – consisting of automatic drawings and paintings on canvas which reveal her persisting interrogation of line, color and form.

This new suite of paintings on both canvas and paper, feature figures and motifs which rise to the surface only to dissolve and reappear elsewhere again. In Ackermann’s Mama series, repeated imagery is often combined with vivid swathes of color, giving her work a complex visual component that oscillates between abstraction and figuration. Her images are the product of automatic lines and gestures, a subconscious unfolding of form.

Opposite – Mama, Skirt on Fire, 2020

Exhibition runs through to December 18th, 2020

THE NORTH FACE – 1994 RETRO HIMALAYAN PARKA

Posted on 2020-10-12

The North Face is reintroducing a true icon of the high mountains, a jacket synonymous with exploration to all corners of the globe. The 1994 Retro Himalayan Parka.

First introduced alongside the brand’s first ever “Himalayan Suit”, the Parka was designed to maintain the technical capabilities in the most extreme conditions but be packaged in a much more wearable silhouette.

This rare blend of high performance functionality and difficult to replicate style made it an early icon, used and loved by explorers from Antarctica to London, Everest to Paris and the Karakoum to Berlin.

Now the new version of this icon brings the same authentic technical capabilities, updated for the modern explorer. The addition of breathable FUTURELIGHT™ technology brings an upgrade to the outer layer, whilst the 700-fill responsibly-sourced down provides massive warmth for the winter months.

Available in a range of colours including Red Flare and Summit Gold.
