Head curator Rebecca Gordon teamed up with contemporary furniture design studio Another Country in London, adorning their show room with a hand selected series of Gina's artworks.

Up in the Air with Tommy Clarke

Last month the Rise Art team hosted a private view with photographer Tommy Clarke in Brick Lane, showcasing works from his latest series 'Useless Loop'. We gladly surrendered to wanderlust, escaping the dark October evening for a curated exhibition of tropical abstracts. Champagne and conversation flowed as guests admired the works and chatted to the man behind the lens. Missed the show? Read our exclusive interview with Tommy on the blog.

Kelvin Okafor on CNN

CNN's Style spotlight was on Rise Art artist Kelvin Okafor last week. It's hard to believe that his hyperrealistic portraits are hand drawings, not photographs. We're not surprised they're getting some attention! Browse his works on Rise Art.

 

Kristjana Williams @ Penhaligons of London
