London Exhibitions Not To Miss In November 2024

Our monthly roundup of our favourite London based exhibitions this November, as curated by the BRUSHWRK team…



Glass Cannon: Alex Gibson

Public Gallery

Until 7th December


"We're delighted to announce 𝘎𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴 𝘊𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘯, the first UK solo exhibition by New York based artist Alex Gibson, opening October 30. Gibson’s compositions puzzle together scattered annotations with episodic sequences that spill onto the surface and sink beneath a confluence of superimposed characters. Across twelve new works, the artist slips between gesture, symbol and image, toying with our desire for narrative resolution in a game of resistance and restraint"


I FORGOT WHAT YOU FELT LIKE

6th November - 12th November

32 Connaught Street, W22AF



‍"'I Forgot What You Felt Like' brings together the voices of four visionary women artists from Palestine, Tunisia, Bahrain, and Lebanon. Each piece captures the aching sensation of drifting away from something once known, only to rediscover it as though for the first time" - JDEED Magazine


Wynnie Mynerva: My Weaponised Body

GATHERING London

Until 9th November



"Gathering London is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new work by Wynnie Mynerva (b. 1993, Lima, Peru; they/them), on view from 4 October – 9 November 2024.

Welcome To The Island Of Misfit Toys⁣⁣

Soup Gallery

Raphael Barratt: Equinox

Huxley-Parlour Gallery

Until 30th November



"Huxley-Parlour are pleased to present Equinox, Raphael Barratt’s first exhibition with the gallery, opening at our Maddox Street space in October 2024. The exhibition will present twelve new paintings, made by the artist in the last year. Central to Barratt’s practice is the relation between figure and landscape; immersing her characters in ambiguous environments, the artist employs them as a means to explore emotion and the atmospheric"


A Hand is Not a Cage

Soho Revue

Until 7th December



"Soho Revue presents A Hand is Not a Cage, a duo show by Alice Macdonald and Joana Galego. Exploring quotidian experiences carried out in the private spheres of our homes, Alice and Joana’s works delve into these routines as positive structures with public impact; caring hands that hold us"


Meitao Qu: It's a small world (after all)

Public Gallery

Until 7th December



"We're delighted to announce 𝘐𝘵'𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 (𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘭𝘭), a solo exhibition by London-based Chinese artist Meitao Qu, opening October 30. The exhibition presents a large-scale kinetic installation of an urban landscape, producing a miniature world that interrogates how ideologies materialise into objects, commodities, and the built environment. Taking global spectacles such as World's Fairs and consumer capitals like Disneyland as sites of inquiry, Qu examines how objects and symbols carry a visual economy that mobilises ideological narratives for popular consumption, reproduced under the guise of entertainment and play"


‘Hidden Rituals’ by Sam Douglas

Blue Shop Galleries

7th November - 24th November



"Sam Douglas currently lives and works near Glasgow and much of his research is conducted via the first hand experience of the Scottish landscape, in particular searching out prehistoric sites which have formed the focus of his practice for many years. These places are interpreted in the studio via a range of painting processes that aim to mimic the geological actions of sedimentation via the pouring of resin and varnish and its subsequent erosion by sanding and scratching. Previous strata of paint often emerge like an archaeological fragment and high gloss or built up surfaces encourage active viewing in order to fully apprehend the painting"


LUNGLEY Gallery

Until 14th December


"LUNGLEY is pleased to present a series of new paintings by Sass Popoli that appear as simultaneously abstract and figurative. Motifs evoke eyes, lips, hands and celestial verses. Text appears across images of hairy skins that may also be interpreted as symbolic landscapes - literal entry points to the interior and the self"
