From Dusk Till Dawn
9. Jul - 15. Aug 08 / ended Arts GalleryFree admission
Monday – Friday, 10am – 6pm, Saturday 11am – 4pm
The Arts Gallery is pleased to present From Dusk Till Dawn, a dark and alluring exhibition. Featuring recent acquisitions from Arts London’s permanent collection, the works delve into the beauty and stillness of the nocturnal world. From dreams and nightmares, to desolate landscapes and abandoned buildings, this exhibition is a playful examination of what happens after dark.
Throughout history myths, legends and folklore have evolved around the danger, debauchery, and magic of the twilight hour. From Dusk till Dawn explores these clandestine activities alongside the quiet beauty of night, through photography, painting and film.
From Dusk Till Dawn reveals works by twenty four of the best emerging artists to have graduated in the last five years, which have been purchased for Arts London’s growing collection.
Featured artists include Rut Blees Luxemburg , Dan Holdsworth, Mark Titchner, Poppy de Villenueve, and Oliver Perkins.

Gallery has been transformed for this show, and really looks amazing. An interesting mix of media, plus some established and some more emerging works. A lot more to say than a survey show, some really innovative pieces.

A great mix of work - and the setting is great - much more atmospheric than in previous shows. The pieces fit really well, and the (in my humble opinion) the show is very well curated.
Well worth a look!
