"the work brushes up against anxieties as old as storytelling itself: miscegenation, bestiality, contamination, the threat posed by the outsider"
"custard tarts for nipples"
On Love by Maren Hassinger at Raven Row
"Maren Hassinger’s installation Love anchors Raven Row’s new exhibition Nomenclature for the Time Being. The intervention takes place in the seldom-used top floor flat – a space that, much to my surprise, resembles an eclectic time capsule of the 1970s."
Hurvin Anderson at Tate Britain
"Hurvin Anderson gets cast inadvertently as a painter of hot, atmospheric landscapes. But he is so often interfering with places: erecting fences, peering through grilles, jostling with boundaries. He paints the terms in which a place can be seen at all."
On A Second Life at Tate Modern
'In A Second Life Tracey Emin seems the same through and through. But the world has caught up.'
Sara Cwynar at The Approach
"Nashville. Sierra. The film’s colour grading makes the names of classic filters arise unbidden. Its palette is the minimalist exuberance of the 2010s – baby blue, yes, but also millennial pink, quartz and harvest gold accents."
