Upcoming Retrospective at Château d’Azay-le-Rideau

Upcoming Solo Exhibition at Château d’Azay-le-Rideau, France

Curated by Claude d’Anthenaise, supported by Les Filles du Calvaire

15 June – 1 November 2026

(PV: 27 June 2026)

 

Karen Knorr Studio is delighted to announce Karen Knorr’s upcoming retrospective at Château d’Azay-le-Rideau, curated by Claude d’Anthenaise and supported by Les Filles du Calvaire. Karen is currently busy preparing for the solo exhibition, which will feature over forty photographs spanning from the 1970’s to the present day.

Built during the reign of Francis I by Gilles Berthelot, the king’s financier, the château of Azay-le-Rideau presents a subtle alliance of French traditions and innovative decorations from Italy. It has become an icon of the new art of building in the Loire Valley in the 16th century, and is today considered one of the jewels of early French Renaissance architecture. At the end of the 19th century, the castle passed through several owners before finally being purchased by the State in 1905. It is now managed and open to visitors by the Centre des monuments nationaux.

Further details coming soon!

Two Temple Place: The Weight of Being

The Weight of Being: Vulnerability, Resilience, and Mental Health in Art
Two Temple Place, London
24 January–19 April 2026

 

Curated by Angela Thomas, this new exhibition at Two Temple Place will explore artistic expression and mental health. Through depictions of deeply personal and collective experiences, it examines the powerful ways in which artists capture vulnerability, resilience, and their search for solace.

Including the work of a diverse range of twentieth century and contemporary artists and their varying perspectives, The Weight of Being will showcase how artists have captured the psychological and emotional impact of societal pressures, resilience in the face of adversity, and existential uncertainty. Four works from Karen Knorr’s series Belgravia (1979–1981) will be included in the exhibition.

Alongside dozens of artworks drawn from galleries and collections across the UK, the portraits, landscapes, and figurative studies of the lesser-known artist John Wilson McCracken (1936–1982) are woven throughout. Denied the opportunity to return to the Slade School of Art following a period of hospitalisation for mental health reasons, McCracken spent much of his career in Hartlepool, producing work that reflects a profound sensitivity to the emotional and social pressures of his time.

In Plain Sight: Photography, Power and Public Space in Britain

Matèria, San Lorenzo, Rome

5 December 2025–1 February 2026

PV: 4 December, 6 – 9pm (San Lorenzo Gallery Night)

 

Matèria is pleased to present In Plain Sight: Photography, Power and Public Space in Britain, an exhibition of photographic works, co-curated in dialogue with Christiane Monarchi. Through the intersection of language and the use of public space, the exhibition explores photography as a transformative site for action and a declaration of intent—whether political, cultural, or personal. Selected photographs from Karen Knorr’s series Country Life (1983–1985) will be on view alongside works by Anna Fox, Jermaine Francis, Sunil Gupta, MacDonaldStrand, Sarah Pickering, John Stezaker, and Bettina von Zwehl.

At its core, In Plain Sight is both a reflection on Britain’s rich photographic landscape and a testament to its profound contributions to social discourse with a particular focus on the last twenty years. Bringing together the work of eight lens-based artists, the exhibition opens a dialogue with specific histories of the United Kingdom which continue to influence visual culture today.
