Ludo - Chaos Theory

Following our recent studio visit (see here), we attended the solo exhibition ‘Chaos Theory‘ of French artist Ludo at Lazarides Rathbone in London. Live butterflies were fluttering during the opening much to the delight of onlookers. Inspired by the theory of “The Butterfly Effect,” Ludo decided to focus on a more personal interpretation of his cultural inspirations with a selection of neon green and monochrome canvases.

London: Katrin Fridriks – Flying Awareness

June 29, 2014 butterfly

Icelandic abstract painter Katrin Fridriks is launching her first solo show at Lazarides Rathbone in London, following her participation in Lazarides’ 2013 group shows BRUTAL and Fresh Paint. The exhibition titled “Flying Awareness” features a brand new body of work with her signature style of idiosyncratic dripping enlargements and bold kaleidoscopic leaking effects.

With her distinctive liquid drippings, Fridriks creates a new architectural dimension to discover inside the artwork itself, reminiscent of satellite imagery or through the lenses of drones. A video also displays a drone flying around the gallery space.
