La femme d’à côté / The Woman Next Door
Curated by Charlotte Boudon
From 25/01/2014 until 22/02/2014
This exhibition evokes a theatre where women play all the possible roles from the position of direction to action. The stage varies: the interior of a bourgeois villa, the rooms of an abandoned house where stories seep out of walls and furniture, out of an artist’s or a photographer’s studio.

Galeria de Arte do Sesi, Avenida Paulista, Sao Paulo: 24 September-25 November 2012
This is the first exhibition ever staged in Brazil to chart a course through British photography in modern times. It spans almost a century – from the new photographic directions of the 20s and 30s that developed alongside the emergence of mass media, to the diverse practice of today’s image-laden world – and features the work of many of Britain’s most significant, celebrated and influential photographers.
“The power of the humble everyday object to transform,
with the artist’s eye, into a work of art – some fruit in
a bowl, a fallen flower on a low brick wall, a stack of
tea cups, a raw light bulb. The creation of a mood, an
atmosphere – ‘don’t shoot what it looks like, shoot what
it feels like’. An uninteresting moment turned into an
unforgettable one.”
– Anjum Katyal
I will be opening up my studio to the public and have hung the series Connoisseurs (1986-1989 ).
This colour work made in the mid to late 1980’s, a humorous and ironic view on the geneology of the English museum and its links to the developing heritage industryin London in the 1980’s. The photographic series begins in Burlington’s Chiswick House (English Heritage) and uses sites such as The Soane Museum at the Lincoln Inn Fields home of Sir John Soane, The Dulwich Picture Gallery, Osterley Park House and the “fake” plaster cast room of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London (currently under restoration).
