For the first time, works by School of London artists are being exposed to the Russian public. 'Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, and the School of London' at Pushkin Museum of Art runs until 20th May. Included in the exhibition is Paula Rego's 'Bride', a large-scale pastel work executed in 1994. One of a series of works entitled 'Dog Women', which Rego began after dismissing her former preferred medium of oil paint in favour of oil pastels for the immediacy they accommodate. Here, the viewer, confronted with the unease of a woman wearing a wedding dress in an overtly passive pose, is made aware of the absence of her male counterpart.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rego will also feature in an exhibition as part of @tate's #5WomenArtists campaign spanning the next 18 months.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #britishartfair #modernbritishart #modbrit #femaleartist #paularego #londonschool #lucianfreud #fransicbacon #pushkinmuseumofart #afirstforrussia #dogwomen #tate

Anish Kapoor 2017 @kamelmennour seen today at MAASTRICHT @tefaf_art_fair . Amongst the multitudes of beautiful objects there were many works that caught the eye for their sheer bravado, international names such as a moody Sodi @axelvervoordt, a magnificent Dubuffet at Landau Fine Art and Ken Noland @pacegallery . However the Kapoor was outstanding. . . #anishkapoor #britishartfair #kamelmennour #tefaf #tefafmaastricht #axelvervoordt #boscosodi #jeandubuffet #landaufineart #art #artfair #sculpture #exhibition #artcollector #saatchigallery
A modern British highlight from @tefaf_art_fair, Lynn Chadwick 'Beast IX' at @osbornesamuelgallery. Executed in 1957, the sculpture is a fine example of the outcome of Chadwick's technique of welding a steel armature and filling it with Stolit. The fair runs until 24th March. Looking forward to visiting tomorrow in person.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Pictured: Lynn Chadwick, 'Beast IX', 1957.

Made in Britain sale @sothebys features a variety of works, editioned and original. Catching the eye was a small Richard Smith, a fine Frink rolling horse and an excellent Patrick Heron, beautifully presented, with areas of exposed canvas colouring subtly down the decades.20th March auction. . . #modernbritishart #britishartfair #sothebys #elisabethfrink #richardsmith #patrickheron #artfair #artauction
‘Andy Warhol and Eduardo Paolozzi: I want to be a machine’ at the National Gallery of Scotland draws a fascinating link between the two artists’ work and their approach to the machine age. A sickly sweet, somewhat unsettling scene emerges from magazine cut-outs in Paolozzi's 'Real Gold', an early piece which flaunts the ease of post-war life. One to visit if you're up in Scotland's capital. Until 2nd June. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Pictured: Eduardo Paolozzi, 'Real Gold', 1949.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #britishartfair #modernbritishart #modbrit #eduardopaolozzi #scottishartist #andywarhol #popculture #sicklysweet #collage #popbeforepop #originsofpop
