The Eagle Gallery / EMH Arts is moving on from our original premises. After 32 years based in Farringdon Road it is the end of an era and we will be sad to leave but the gallery has a very exciting programme up ahead with exhibitions in association with Turps Gallery, Vivienne Roberts Projects and Standpoint Gallery, together with a new series of artist / writer collaborations coming out under the EMH Arts imprint.
In May we are mounting Peter Ole Rasmussen’s solo exhibition Stile in collaboration with Turps Gallery, as the first in an on-going series of curated shows. We are very pleased to have the opportunity to exhibit Rasmussen’s work in the context of a space dedicated to contemporary painting and the installation highlights an interesting development in his practice with a move into three-dimensional painted sculpture. A catalogue with text by Sean Rainbird will be launched for the exhibition. (Stile: Peter Ole Rasmussen, 10 May–14 June).
The Garden of Unearthly Delights A collaboration between composer Tansy Davies and James Fisher, developed from his painting series Linden Lea, will be premiered on 3 May as part of the Folkestone New Music Days performance programme. Fisher’s recent work will be on show in After-Image, a two person exhibition with Phil Goss mounted by Vivienne Roberts Projects, co-curated by Emma Hill.
(After-Image: James Fisher / Phil Goss, 26 June–07 August).
We are delighted to announce that Fragile Stories by Mandy Bonnell and Déirdre Kelly opens at the Museo del Merletto, Venice, on 14 June. Almost six years in development the exhibition features works made in response to artefacts in the outstanding lace collection held at the museum. The project explores the historical practice of domestic lace making and celebrates the extraordinary skills of its anonymous, female practitioners. Stepney Rose, a new edition of etchings by Bonnell will be launched for the exhibition. (Fragile Stories: Mandy Bonnell / Déirdre Kelly, 14 June–08 January 2025).
