The exhibition Home: Contemporary Female Masters brings together a group of international mid career artists with links to the UK, working in different media - from painting to photography, installation and video art.
As a collective of female artists from around the world, from migrant families and different ethnicities, we are the product of a generation of women who, for the very first time in history, have the opportunity make the choices of defining "home" entirely for ourselves, regardless of where we come from and how the rest of the world thinks. While we may not have all the answers, we are uniquely equipped to raise important questions about the role of the contemporary woman in a globalised world.

AmericanBrits: Art Exhibition by Two American-British Artists
Are the intrinsic cultural qualities that influence art based on the visual inheritance of an artist or the learned techniques developed within an aesthetic environment? An exhibition of paintings and sculpture by two American-born artists Rodney Beecher Roberts and Tina Mammoser explores this age old question of nature vs nurture.
Rodney Beecher Roberts, a 70 year old Californian-raised non-figurative action painter began his art career in Los Angeles has lived and worked in Herefordshire for the past ten years, becoming a citizen in 2009. Tina Mammoser is a 42 year old Chicago-born artist who began painting in England. She lives and works in London, has been in the UK nearly 20 years but only became a UK citizen in August 2012.
Both artists are painting within the context of England's contemporary art scene at a time when multi cultural and international diversity are reaching a crescendo. Yet despite extensive variables, not least of which are their very different approaches to and philosophies toward painting, a distinctly visible cultural thread appears to connect and run through their work.
The exhibition which includes current and past work from both artists will take place at Gallery 27 on the historic Cork Street in London, just behind the Royal Academy. The exhibition is free for all visitors and is within walking distance of Green Park or Piccadilly tubes and buses. The gallery will be open 14th-19th January from 10-6, with evening openings till 8pm Thursday and Friday the 17th & 18th.
Event: Coast Paintings
Dates: 1 Jul 2012 - 31 Jul 2012
Exhibition of coast paintings created for the new award-winning Essex Wildlife Trust Visitor Centre. The paintings explore the English coastline and complement the activities of the trust on the mudflats of this tidal site.
Event: Testing the Sublime Limits of Vision
Dates: 15 Mar 2012 - 25 Mar 2012
The 2012 exhibition programme for the ‘no-format’ gallery will include a series of exhibitions of visual artworks under the collective title ‘On Sublimity and Synaesthesia’. These exhibitions will explore art created in response to experience at the sublime limits of ordinary vision, and how the limits between the physical senses can be transcended by synaesthetic processes in the brain which enable non-visual data to contribute to the creation, experience and knowledge of visual artworks. Each exhibition in this series will give one in-house artist the opportunity to exhibit a selection of his/her visual artworks, and to work in conjunction with the freelance writer Stephen Baycroft (author of a biography of the artist Ken Currie entitled The Mask of Being, 2001, and currently completing a book on the relationships between the art of the Greek dramatist Aeschylus, the American poet T.S. Eliot and the Anglo-Irish painter Francis Bacon), to produce an artistic statement in which this artist places his/her work in the context of Western art history and philosophical aesthetics.
Since the time of the ancient Greek philosopher Plato a distinction has been made between the pseudo-mystical ‘sublime’ use of an observer’s mind’s eye to utilize visual sensations of his/her physical eyes which pushed this observer’s enformation processes of ordinary visual perception towards their upper and lower limits; and the mystical use of an observer’s mind’s eye to no longer use the outward-looking physical eyes, but instead to use this mind’s eye to look inwards to observe images of recollected memories stored in the mental aspect of his/her soul. The paintings by Tina Mammoser in this exhibition belong to a pseudo-mystical tradition in modern painting which arose during the mid-19th Century from the desire of visual artists to paint the results of using extreme visual sensations by their physical eyes to test the sublime limits of their ordinary visual perceptions

Biography
In my abstract landscapes, geological patterns are quietly immersed in colour. Juxtaposed with my glazes of soft atmospheric paint layers, I use drawing or collage to draft half-obscured strata of rock and cliff. I lay hints of the deeper time in our surroundings. My take on a traditional landscape entwines ideas from the sublime artworks of 18th century exploration and the new sublime of modern science. Whether rover landscapes on Mars or the 100 million year-old cliffs surrounding Yorkshire, I want to share a curiosity about time, land, and space within an aesthetically beautiful space.
