R. CRUMB – TALES OF PARANOIA

Posted on 2025-10-13

In his works of the last several years Crumb reflects on life in his eighties and his sixty-year career as well as themes of personal and mass paranoia during these times of social and political unrest. Crumb’s most mordant attacks are, as always, reserved for himself and show him contending with his own manic anxieties in a humorous and insightful manner.

The new works in this exhibition represent Crumb’s first extensive solo comic work in over two decades, marking an impressive late-career resurgence. Many of these incisive, introspective, and formally adventurous illustrations were made for the artist’s forthcoming publication, Tales of Paranoia.

Opposite – I’m Afraid, 2025

Exhibition runs through to December 20th, 2025

PAUL OUTERBRIDGE – PHOTOGRAPHS

Posted on 2025-10-13

Paul Outerbridge – Photographs, is a landmark exhibition celebrating the visionary work of Paul Outerbridge (1896–1958), one of the most resourceful and provocative photographers of the twentieth century. This exhibition brings together a rare selection of Carbro prints, Silver Gelatin Photographs, and Platinum Prints, tracing the evolution of a modernist whose daring vision helped redefine the possibilities of photography through Cubist experimentation and radical abstraction.

Outerbridge emerged in the 1920s as a bold innovator, transforming ordinary objects, such as milk bottles, collars, eggs, into fractured Cubist constructions of light and form. His platinum and silver gelatin prints reduced subjects to intersecting planes and geometric rhythms, revealing a structural beauty aligned with the avant-garde movements of his time. These works positioned him among artists and contemporaries such as Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray, and Edward Steichen, and demonstrate his embrace of Cubism’s challenge: to fracture reality and reassemble it as pure abstraction.
