WEEK: 5th May – 11th May
There are loads of art events such as private views, artists talks, and screenings happening around London, and often it is impossible to choose where to go and what to see. To help you with the choice Jenny Judova from Art Map London will be advising on what events seem worth attending during the week.
TUESDAY 6 MAY
Colnaghi, 6-8pm private view Cathrine Goodman – Drawing From Veronese
Sometimes Mayfair seems to be the place where nothing happens despite the abundance of galleries, so its worth visiting the gallery that opens its doors to the public.

WEDNESDAY 7 MAY
Standpoint Gallery, 6:30pm artist talk with Emily Speed
The talk offers an interesting approach that will look at people and their relationship with architecture. The press release has a great variety of images from the fuhrer to Zoolander.

Debut Contemporary, 7-9pm private view ‘May Private View’ group show
Its always good to keep track of whats cool and emerging. The exhibition will also have work by Alice White the artist in residence at the London Zoo (seriously this is probably the coolest residency in London she gets to see baby animals every day).

FRIDAY 9 MAY
Union Gallery, 6-9pm private view Rainer Neumeier ‘Reprimer’
REPRIMER establishes a new way of thinking about painting and constitutes an overdue reinvestigation into the medium, creating a new manner of thinking about paint, in reaction to the obsession of looking back to the past.

Hanmi Gallery, 6-9pm private view Bongsu Park ‘Before Lines, After Lines’
Through her work – influenced by the theories of Bergson, Deleuze and Guattari – Bongsu Park probes the fundamental quetions of life: Why do we exist? Why are we born? Where do we come from? In doing so, Park remains conscious of the long, historic trajectory centred around these questions which those before her have explored through different perspectives, such as science, philosophy and religion.
