A Gap in the Clouds -The Heong Gallery, Downing College, Cambridge - 31 October 2025 – 8 February 2026
This exhibition explores how modern and contemporary artists use landscape as a way to navigate the relationship between our mental lives and the world around us. Neither distant views nor simple reflections of the mind, the works in the exhibition treat landscape as an active, imaginative space where inner and outer worlds meet, reflect, and reshape each other.
Spanning a wide range of media, geographies, and perspectives, including those shaped by war, displacement and ecological precarity, the exhibition brings together works that engage with different kinds of landscape: figurative and abstract; real, imagined, and remembered; intimate or vast; welcoming or alienating. Each piece offers a space where mental states — ranging from melancholy and anxiety to calmness and resilience — are explored, confronted, or transformed. Through images of shifting weather, changing seasons, and diverse terrain, the works show how inner and outer landscapes are always in flux. Here, landscape emerges as a vital space of emotional resonance, reflection, and creative possibility.
Artists: Ai Weiwei, Anas Albraeche, Etel Adnan, Francis Alÿs, Yto Barrada, Giorgio de Chirico, Patricia Domínguez, Latifa Echakhch, Andreas Eriksson, Rachel Howard, David Jones, Kim Bohie, Koo Jeong A, Peter Lanyon, André Masson, Edvard Munch, Paul Nash, Nengi Omuku, Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa, David Shrigley, Alice Visentin, Frank Walter, Zheng Bo.

Quick On The Draw - Jealous Gallery, Shoreditch - October 30, 2025 - November 15, 2025
Jealous is excited to announce ‘Quick On The Draw’: an all-star line-up of unique artist drawings displayed under one roof, opening on Thursday 30th October.
The collection brings together original works from Jessica Albarn, Danny Augustine, Charming Baker, Dave Buonaguidi, Stanley Donwood, Noel Fielding, Rachel Howard, David Shrigley, Jonathan Yeo, and Nettie Wakefield.
A departure from Jealous’ signature print shows, the exhibition is a quietly confident exploration into the intimate language of drawing: how it can be both the genesis of an idea and its resolution.
Original works that are sharp-witted and intricate, ‘Quick On The Draw’ showcases the artists’ raw talent stripped back to its purest form. From self-deemed ‘quick shit drawings’ to in-depth studies and whimsical caricatures, each work invites the viewer to take a glimpse into this nuanced collective of artists’ minds.
Deconstructing the minds behind some of Jealous’ most successful and iconic screenprint editions, this exhibition is an intimate and thoughtful collection curated by Gallery Director Dario Illari.
‘Quick On The Draw’ will run from 30th October – 15th November at Jealous Gallery, 53 Curtain Road EC2A 3PT. -

Cast a Cold Eye by William Davie
Cast a Cold Eye by William Davie is published by Doris Press, an independent publishing house based in England, established and developed under the direction of Rachel Howard
Eight essays and revised reviews make up Cast A Cold Eye, unified by a deep sense of curiosity. William Davie critically engages with established narratives and excavates what has fallen between the cracks of history. He examines under appreciated aspects of artistic production, such as Helen Frankenthaler’s highly innovative woodcut prints and argues why printmaking should be considered Paula Rego’s principal medium, and why the late works of Frans Hals deserve renewed attention.
Davie tells the story of how the excitable rediscovery of Vermeer by Théophile Thoré-Bürger in the mid-19th century brought renewed focus to an enigmatic artist who, though hidden in plain sight, might one day be seen as a forerunner of artistic innovation during the Dutch Golden Age and who is only now receiving proper scholarly appreciation. He explores the convoluted and often Sisyphean efforts of historians and curators to bring overlooked artists into the recognised architecture of Western art history.
From the tireless efforts of Gordon Parks to depict the struggle of African Americans, to the extraordinary compassion of Lorelei Guillory in the wake of her six-year-old son’s murder, and the empathetic curiosity of Jan Arriens, founder of Lifelines, Davie draws meaningful connections between artistic practice and human resilience.
He traces the enduring power of Francisco de Zurbarán’s didactic use of light in 17th-century Spain, and Toko Shinoda’s quest to transcend the trappings of modernist calligraphy and patriarchal postwar Japan, journeying to America and back again, in search of the artistic freedo and confidence that would come to define her 107-year-long life and career.
William Davie’s writing needs no images; his ekphrastic style and meticulous research are more than enough.https://www.doris.press/store/p/cast-a-cold-eye-by-willaim-davie
