An hour lost and some light won. A new week and so a load of new art shows for you to explore at your leisure.......

A new week and so a load of new art shows for you to explore at your leisure. Here are a few of them.

Wednesday 1st of April is the Chelsea MFA Interim Show. This is undoubtedly worth a visit for anyone with an interest in emerging art in London at the moment. Here is the information you will need to get yourself there.

Chelsea College of Art & Design Wednesday, April 1, 2009 6:00pm - 8:30pm Chelsea College of Art & Design John Islip Street London, United Kingdom

Another event, falling on the same evening of the 1st, and worth taking note of is the 'Open Studio' exhibition of artist Dicky Graham. It is in Harrow-on-the-Hill which is 25 minutes from Baker Street tube on the Metropolitan line. For more information about this event then, as usual, click here.

Thursady 2nd of April is the date for an opening at Paradise Row. With this being the first Thursday of the month you can expect to find a host of openings. Vyner Street and Hoxton Sq area should provide you with a buffet of contemporary art to peruse. However, Paradise Row will be my first stop for sure. I believe Paradise Row to be an excellent commercial gallery. It always seems to be curated well and the work on display is invariably of a fantastic standard. This time around the exhibition is of two artists work; Gosha Ostretsov and Jean-Charles de Castelbajac. The titles of the two exhibitions are 'The Adventures of Robbing Good' and 'Triumph of the Sign' respectively. For more information then click here.

Near by to Paradise Row on Redchurch Street is another promising opening at studio1.1 gallery of Gill Ord's solo show titled 'A Country of Wonders' . Expect to see colourful and large paintings with layers of paint squeezing their way through to the surface. They are at once landscapes, all be them minimal and far from representational, and yet curiously they are hung in 'portrait' configuration. This conjures a curious query within the viewer as to how easily a few lines and colour can plant a solid idea into our head. A landscape? Maybe. To get more information visit the Studio 1.1 website here.
