SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Thomas Lélu: Calm Down It’s Just Art
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Lélu’s practice interweaves photography\, installation art\, and textual elements\, frequently featuring the appropriation and recontextualisation of imagery from popular culture and media to interrogate themes of contemporary society\, consumerism\, and media representation. His methodology of exploration\, archiving\, and contextualization positions the French artist as “one of the archaeologists of our present epoch”\, as the gallery puts it.

SUMMARY:Olivier Souffrant: In Plain Sight
DESCRIPTION:In his work\, the NY-based Haitian artist references both African American masters such as Romare Bearden\, Jacob Lawrence\, and Jean-Michel Basquiat and European painters like Botticelli\, Van Gogh\, and Picasso. Souffrant uses everyday materials such as magazines\, online publications\, computers\, and mobile phone to create his paintings\, applying digital cut and pastes for a collage technique; the resulting images are printed on canvas or on aluminium panels\, treated as an underpainting that will be painted over with acrylics and oil paint. To 16 March. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Samuel Olayombo: Lotus Bloom Ranchers
DESCRIPTION:“I cross the boundaries of traditional masculinity\, macho culture\, societal gender assertions and associations\,” says Samuel Olayombo\, who works with oils\, acrylics\, charcoal and pastels to create vibrant and large-scale canvases of predominately male but non-gender normative portraits. Using a palette knife to convey intricate 3D skin textures\, he pays homage to classic artists from Van Gogh and Arja Valimaki to El Dragg Okwoju and Barkley Hendricks; and he prefers to use traditionally ‘female’ colours\, like rose and pastel pinks\, to depict seemingly brute masculine subjects: “For me\, regardless of gender\, we are all equal and this is the major reason why I employ the colour pink in my paintings. I want to correct the notion that pink is feminine … I envision my portraits as an effort to change representations of masculinity\, and shift ideas on what it means to be a man.” \nTo 11 November.
