Cork Street Galleries Frieze West End Night 2024

FRIEZE NO.9 CORK STREET (9 Cork Street) is pleased to present its programme for October, in which the Mayfair space will welcome three exhibitions featuring Rhea Dillon, John Giorno, Eunsil Lee, Sudhir Patwardhan, Francesca Woodman and more.

ALMINE RECH, ‘Memories of the Future’

Curated by Marco Capaldo, Creative Director of 16ARLINGTON, Memories of the Future features 14 visionary artists. Each responding to Capaldo’s prompt that ‘memories are not immutable experiences existing only in our past, but rather ever-evolving experiences that continuously shape and inform our future’, the selected artists work across painting, photography and installation. Highlights include paintings by Rhea Dillon, Remi Ajani and George Rouy; sculptures by Jesse Pollock and Sandra Poulson; photographs by Francesca Woodman; and an installation in the form of John Giorno’s seminal DIAL-A-POEM ‘free poetry service’, first shown at MoMA in 1970.

CYLINDER, Eunsil Lee, ‘Treachery Skin’

Eunsil Lee’s solo exhibition ‘Treachery Skin’ explores the psychological interplay between suppressed desires and societal norms. Lee scrutinizes the vulnerability of sorrow and despair, creating paintings that are akin to unfinished buildings. Dismantling states of psychological instability and the human nervous system with meticulous precision, Lee bares the tender flesh of emotion.

Vadehra Art Gallery, Sudhir Patwardhan, ‘Cities: Built, Broken’

‘Cities: Built, Broken’ is Sudhir Patwardhan’s first solo show in London. The leading Indian contemporary artist presents recent work, including large and small canvases and a body of drawings. The exhibition coincides with the Barbican’s show ‘The Imaginary Institution of India’, which also features Patwardhan’s work.

The three exhibitions will run concurrently from 4 October – 19 October 2024
