Ali Liebegott, thank you
Ochi Projects presents Thank You, an online solo exhibition of Los Angeles-based artist, Ali Liebegott. Featured in their online viewing room until September 7, the exhibition presents nine paintings on canvas, paper and panel featuring self-portraits, personal and institutional interiors and scenes from daily life. Suggesting an intimate conversation between the artist and her surroundings, the body of work feels particularly poignant in this moment where so many are experiencing increased physical isolation, solitude and attention to the details of the mundanity of our day to day lives.

KATHRYN MACNAUGHTON, HEATWAVE
Beers London presents ‘HEATWAVE’ a solo exhibition by Toronto-based, Canadian artist Kathryn MacNaughton opening on September 11. Just prior to the international lockdown that saw millions working from home, Kathryn secured a bright new studio with large windows where she created her newest series of works. MacNaughton’s work is often about tension – between hard and soft, masculine and feminine, playful and dramatic, but also restraint and freedom. Created during the summer heatwave, the works evoke the brilliant vermilions of a setting sun or rays of light beaming through MacNaughton’s studio window. HEATWAVE will be on view at the London gallery through October 10.

andrew lyght, second nature
Opening Friday, September 11 Anna Zorina Gallery presents ‘Second Nature’, a solo exhibition of works by Andrew Lyght. The show will feature works spanning multiple series that are united in the merger of dualistic qualities such as painting and sculpture, industrial and ornamental, raw and refined. Lyght’s technique is inspired by his youth spent in the South American nation of Guyana, when as a child he was often found on the docks with his sailor uncles. Andrew Lyght was introduced to the gallery by independent curator, Dexter Wimberly who had been following his career closely for several years.
