Picasso at the Gagosian Gallery
Posted by Angie Lewin

We had our first visit to the Gagosian Gallery today to see 'Picasso - The Mediterranean Years'. 3D works ranging from a plywood flute-tooting faun to a Mark Hearld-ian flat faced ceramic owl sit amongst paintings, prints and drawings (did he ever stop working?). The wit and playfulness in some of the work was dulled somewhat by the dark-suited security guards looming at every turn. Well worth a visit though.

The exhibition runs until August 28th 2010 at the Gagosian Gallery, 6-24 Britannia Street, London WC1X 9JD Further information

More from Elizabeth Merriman
Posted by Simon Lewin

Here's 'Goodbye Winter', another of our favourite paintings from our forthcoming exhibition of new work by Elizabeth Merriman which opens on Saturday 22nd May 2010.

“My new work is inspired by the age old tradition of still-life. Starting to paint small compositions of Winter and now Spring flowers in favourite jugs and pots, pushing them to various degrees of abstraction to allow each painting its own feeling and atmosphere, while also drawing upon the daily weather conditions.

The sense of colour used in each composition is very important to me and often dictates the beginning of a painting, however, sometimes this is only to be obliterated later on and the final painting can be much changed over a period of time.”

You can now view all of the paintings online
