The discipline of the indiscipline
Very soon The Indiscipline of Painting exhibition comes to the Mead Gallery at the University of Warwick. Photos of the installation process can already be seen on the Mead Gallery Facebook page (they kindly said I could include one here).
It takes some discipline to get a show like this together!
Featuring work by 41 abstract painters from the sixties to now, it starts on 14 January 2012 and runs until 10 March 2012. As well as seeing the show you can also book a tour of the abstract paintings in the University of Warwick collection, attend a talk by Daniel Sturgis artist and curator of the show and join a symposium for an in-depth discussion of the origins and endurance of abstraction.
Looks like a great exhibition. I am not actually familiar with Sturgis’s work so thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Thanks for the comment
You are welcome!
In the catalogue there is a wonderful Sturgis reproduced that I can hardly wait to see and for me one of the strongest paintings in the show. It is called No Other Home and here is a google image of it: http://images.huffingtonpost.com/2011-11-24-DanielSturgis.jpg
