brunette coleman london galleries

Ten years after London dealer Vanessa Carlos launched the gallery sharing initiative Condo in the East End, the collaborative model has become a key survival strategy for galleries of all sizes, especially smaller ones. The latest edition of Condo London runs from Saturday to February 14. Brunette Coleman, a photography-forward gallery launched in 2023 by Anna Eaves and Ted Targett in Bloomsbury, exemplifies this trend: it has grown quickly through cooperative exhibitions rather than costly fairs, participating in Condo for the second time this year by hosting Milan’s Zero gallery. The gallery represents six international artists, and its artist Nat Faulkner won Frieze London’s Emerging Artist Award in 2024, with a solo show opening at Camden Art Centre.

Still in 'war mode': Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art reopens with exhibitions about conflict

The Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art (TMoCA) has reopened with a weekly rotating post-ceasefire program called 'Art and War,' following weeks of bombardment that forced its closure and prompted emergency efforts to protect its collection. The program began with works by American Pop artists James Rosenquist, Roy Lichtenstein, and Robert Indiana, and this week features three works from Pablo Picasso's Weeping Woman series, focusing on Spain. Museum director Reza Dabirinezhad described the challenges of safeguarding the collection during US-Israeli strikes, including removing 80% of the oil from Noriyuki Haraguchi's installation 'Matter and Mind' (1977) to prevent fire risk, and protecting outdoor sculptures by Henry Moore, René Magritte, and Max Bill.
