Gérard Rancinan – Wonderful World
Thursday 7 June – Sunday 24 June 2012
Venue: Londonewcastle Project Space, 28 Redchurch Street, London E2 7DP
The Future Tense in association with Opera Gallery and Londonewcastle is pleased to present Wonderful World – the concluding act in Gérard Rancinan’s Trilogy of the Moderns.
Situated somewhere between comedy and tragedy, this vivid photographic tableau and accompanying texts paints a picture of a confused humanity, groping blindly in the darkness, obsessed with the cult of celebrity and guided only by an absolute desire for generalised, prescribed happiness.
SPECTRA I

From mediaeval stained glass to Pop Art via Fauvism, bold use of colour has been explored continuously throughout art history.

SPECTRA I will feature a wide range of mediums including painting, sculpture, installation, drawing, animation and digital art from a vital international roster of 7 artists, several of whom have never before exhibited in the UK.
