Past Collection Loan
Autograph has loaned Snapshot by Rotimi Fani-Kayode from our collection to the exhibition The Gaze at TJ Boulting.
This group show takes as its starting point Moroni’s enigmatic and powerful portrait, The Tailor, which hangs in London’s National Gallery. Bringing together contemporary and historical artists, The Gaze seeks echoes of this keystone of male portraiture, exploring the intimate, even unsettling relation between artist and sitter.
Featuring works by artists AdeY, Soufiane Ababri, James Bartolacci, Rotimi Fani-Kayode, Adam Fearon, Alex Foxton, Sunil Gupta, Christopher Hartmann, Florian Hetz, Dan Kane, Cary Kwok, Michael Leonard, Gilbert Lewis, Herbert List, Kate Merry, Oluseye, Prem Sahib, Martin Sekera, Howard Tangye, Wilhelm Von Gloeden.
Read curator Louis Wise's introduction to the exhibition on TJ Boulting's website.
