Carmengloria Morales - Rome, London, Milan, New York, Sermugnano
The exhibition Carmengloria Morales: Rome, London, Milan, New York, Sermugnano, was dedicated to the Chilean born artist Carmengloria Morales. Morales is celebrated as one of the most significant abstract painters working in Italy today.  Although fiercely independent and avoiding all labels Morales was the only woman associated with Italian Analytical Painting movement of the mid 1970s, as well as an inaugural participant in the New York Radical Painting group of the 1980s. This exhibition traces Morales’s career through work she made in the five principal locations where she has set up her studio Rome, London, Milan, New York, and Sermugnano. The selection contains paintings and works on paper ranging from 1963 to the present, and includes important examples of her Dittico (Dyptych) and Tondo works.

david troostwyk - an exhibition of paintings and other works

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
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
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.

Curated by Daniel Sturgis and Martyn Simpson
