Handsome Young Doctor

Thanks to Anenta for bringing this exhibition to my attention, it looks well worth a visit.

6 July – 26 August Exhibition – Rannvá Kunoy

Works by Faroese artist Rannvá Kunoy are on show for the first time in London. They form part of a group exhibition titled “Handsome Young Doctor – A show about Trust” and curated by Tom Morton. Rather than focusing on pills, scalpels and other objects from the universe of the doctor, the exhibition questions the idea of ‘Trust’ as a general concept. The London bases artist’s paintings draw on the tradition from high modernism and sci-fi illustration and depict ephemeral figures in a state of coming into being. The fragile state of these figures may question the overall idea about being confident and having faith in the uncertainty of life.

The exhibition is supported by the Representation of the Faroes in London, Arts Council England and Institut Francais. Wednesday-Sunday 12-6 pm
