Louise Bourgeois

Louise Bourgeois, loose sheet, c. 1959: 27.9 x 21.6 cm. LB-0464; Louise Bourgeois Archive, New York, © The Easton Foundation.

Louise Bourgeois at The Freud Museum, 20 Maresfield Gardens, London, NW3 5SX until 27 May 2012.

Louise Bourgeois: The Return of the Repressed will show original documents from the artist’s recently discovered psychoanalytic writings, as well as drawings and sculptures, in the house of the founding father of psychoanalysis. Following its first showing in Latin America, the exhibition has been re-imagined for the unique setting of the Freud Museum London, which was discussed as a venue by Louise Bourgeois before her death. Appropriately, in the final home of Sigmund Freud and his daughter Anna Freud, this exhibition will explore the artist’s complex and ambivalent engagement with the theory and practice of psychoanalysis.

MA Designer Maker

Ashley Heminway

Wendy Helps

If you like to mix your fine art up with more traditional craft skills, then the MA Designer Maker is not to be missed. I was lucky enough to meet both of these wonderful artists when I visited the shows last week. We had an interesting talk about their work which made visiting the shows this year even more memorable.

MA Printmaking

MA Printmaking at Camberwell College of the Arts is always a joy to see. This year my favourite work was by artist, Paul Wye, whose installation is featured in the top 2 images. The shows continue until the 8th September.

Funky Pretty

Funky Pretty, originally uploaded by matthew feyld.

Canadian artists Matthew Feyld, Jaret Penner and Michael Swaney are exhibiting at Gallery Steinsland Berliner in Stockholm, Sweden until 23rd September.

'They are fun and straight, yet thoughtful calm and poetic. Their stories revolve around characters in what may have started out as a depiction of reality, but in the end became something entirely different. Or if possible the other way around. The imagery is a modern version of traditional folk art, full of life, movement and color, varying from simple, unadorned, and a myriad of details.'

Matthew Rose

Last evening I was having a smoke with artist Matthew Rose outside his one-man show at The Orange Dot Gallery in Bloomsbury and Rose was telling me that all of his work was about being scared but also about being fresh. "It's a love story, with scissors and glue".

Matthew Rose is an American artist who has been living and working in Paris, France for the last 20 years and his current show features an intriguing mix of collage, found objects, paint and glue. Oh! And a pair of scissors... It is an engaging show in a beautiful gallery space just around the corner from the Foundling Museum. You can download a copy of the poster here.

The Orange Dot Gallery, Continental Stores, 54 Tavistock Place, London WC1. Open Monday-Saturday 11am-5pm. The show continues until 31st October 2010.
