This exhibition introduces the work of David Troostwyk (1929-2009) to a new audience, underlining its originality and vitality. David Troostwyk’s work with text, objects and painting displays a reduced elegance and focus on the way art can communicate ideas. Although pared-back, his work can be seen as moral.

The Indiscipline of Painting was a major international exhibition that examined how the position of abstract painting, from the 1960s to 2012, could remain critical and urgent for artists through a renegotiation with past painting and ideas in past abstract painting. It proposed this could be done within the boundaries of painting itself. The exhibition brought together work by 49 international artists.

Perfidy began as an intervention to mark the 50th anniversary of Le Corbusier's famous monastery, La Tourette. Artworks which were selected that engaged with ideas of modernism and faith, and these were spread throughout what is still a working and living religious community. The exhibition was then reconfigured with photographs of the monastery, taken by one of the monks, for Kettle's Yard in Cambridge.
