I will be taking part in The Undead Painters' FLASH SALON on August 14th. The Undead Painters Forums aim to provoke discussion about prominent issues in contemporary painting by bringing together some of the most skilled and knowledgable painters working in and around London today. Founded by James Petrucci and Alastair Gordon in 2013 the Undead Painters meet several times a year to conduct forums and exhibitions.
FLASH SALON takes place at Bond House Gallery, ASC Studios Entrance 2, Bond House, Goodwood Road, London SE14 6BL: 6-8.30pm

Martin’s gallerist (and eventual friend) Arne Glimcher wrote, “…she was extremely self-effacing and separated her persona from her art. She believed that she was the locus where her art happened, rather than its creator.” Yet critics and curators seem less easily satisfied: who was the reclusive Agnes Martin, and from where did her ‘inspired’ paintings develop?
